WHAT IS THIS??

Postby Dweezle » Wed Dec 02, 2009 9:59 pm

I was changing my Oil filter and found a loose wire. :?

it has a blue connector on it, so i dug out my torch and found a round cylindrical Dealeo that goes into the side of the engine, under the intake manifold.

Now i feel like a real moron because i have no idea what that is/does!!!
not even sure if i nudged it off today or if its always been disconnected???

I have plugged it back on.

Could someone please tell me what this is??
