Need help Identifying Part I need

Post by Leatherneck »

I have a 1998 Volvo S70 GLT. If you are looking at the engine, (standing in front of the car). On the right hand side just beside the fuel rail...there is a black plastic cover you can remove with a phillips head screw driver (Just one screw holding it). After removing the cover there is a hose that bends and is 1 inch on one end and 1 1/2 inch on the other. It is 4 inches long. Not sure what it is connected to but air runs through it. I need to replace this part as it has a huge hole in it but i'm having problems finding it on FCP Groton. If Anyone can help me out I would appreciate it.

It could be part of the idle air control system, but can you take a picture of the part and post it?
1997 855 GLT (Light Pressure Turbo) still going strong. Previous: 1986 240 GL rusted out in '06, 1985 Saab 900T rusted out in '95, 1975 Saab 99 rusted out in '95, 1973 Saab 99 rusted out in '94

I think jreed nailed it. Does it go to a silver cylindrical object (the IAC valve) that is mounted just below the throttle body? If so or if you can post a picture I will look up the part number for you.

Wrapping the line with electrical tape will likely keep you going while the part comes in.

Yes, I believe that is it then. I'm working so can't post a pic right now but that's exactly what it goes to. Thanks!
