Re: broken part on uim

You cannot buy the piece separately. Break it off, drill out the rest. Go to Home Depot pick up a barbed brass fitting that is threaded on one end. Thread the whole with a tap, use a little Teflon tap to get a tight seal, and screw it in. You will also need a slightly longer piece of hose to run to the pcv valve, which can be purchased by the foot at any autoparts store, its kept behind the counter, so most people don't know its there. Also, if you are buying other stuff at the time, and you tell them you only need about 6 inches they will normally just give it to you for free. In total its less then a $5 fix.

There is life after the Cougar, but the fast lane can be such a lonely place.
