Default RE: quick question

It's for your PCV system, to help remove unburnt gasses from teh crankcase, extend the life of your oil, control emissions, coltrol moisture, etc. If you have a supercharger or turbocharger, you are going to have to reroute that tube else you'll run into pressure problems. If you are all motor and you have a problem with that tube, you could potentially end up with a vacuum leak.
