(The hose which goes into the engine behind the cross over pipes)I broke mine and am waiting to get a new one on Tuesday (tried Thursday just gone but ford id not have any in stock).I have noticed a change in the revs, they don't drop during a gear change, does it have something to do with the fuel mix?
