Just finished some regular maintenance and noticed a slightly “sweet” burning smell after some driving. After further inspection, i noticed a hose leaking which is connected to the throttle body(see below)
I have previously installed a throttle body spacer which has in turn pushed that hose up against the reservoir above it. Seems as if over time, the friction has worn the hose down on the connection causing a leak.
Im very unfamiliar with these hoses, but it looks as if that is coolant spattered over the internal (blue fluid). Ive placed a bit of firm foam between for now.
Could someone please advise as to exactly what that hose is and does? And if i need to be careful replacing it as far as levels and pressure goes?
Thanks!
