hey guys could this cause a bank one and 2 to be lean?

 

yes, absolutely, that's a vacuum resivoir (not sure if that's what it is actually called) but they are used to bump the displacement of the vacuum system, so you have more volume of vacuum... a hole in that is basically a vacuum leak and would cause it to be lean,

temp fix, pull the lines (i think there is 2) and couple them together if there is 1, just plug it

 

yes that def would. that hole is allowing vacuum to leak and that causes you engine to run lean. replace that asap.

 

Ok thanks guys. Found a replacement. Will see if it takes cel away.

 

it won't, replace the bulb thing, then you have to actually reset the code, remove your neg bat cable, turn head lights on, count to 30, turn headlights off, re-connect battery

 

why do i have to replace bulb thing???

 

or couldnt i go to auto parts store and have them clear codes with their code reader?

 

the bulb thing is melted, there is a hole in it.. you are losing all your vacuum out that hole, you might need to get a can of vacuum to pour back in to replace what you lost actually... but i would deal with it before you lose more... and if you just clear the code, you will still be leaking out that vacuum... which is not a good thing, a can of vacuum is not cheap!

alternate answer




nah, it's probably fine... that hole in the middle of the melt area looks like it will seal it's self back up

 

WTF are you talking about buying a can of vacum and holes fusing themselves together?

OP, just find a replacement and clear the CEL. it's your best solution.
also, how did that get melted that bad? did you not smell anything burning or melting?

 

i've melted things under the hood several times, that's in the wheel well, i don't think you would smell much while driving...

morris, do you know where i can buy a bucket of steam to power my skyhook?

 

same place to buy a bucket of gravity and a acme hole. be sure to hold the bucket when you jump in.

 

not to steal the thread here but weezle i want the shirt in your avatar on a bumper sticker!!!!

 

that would be sweet!

 

I also had a lean in bank one and two problem this week. I changed that elbow that is notorious for going bad. The new one I got goes on a LOT easier than the old one came off, is that normal? It seems too loose but It is the right part number, any help?

 

yeah that's normal... the rubber gets stuck, i couldn't get my buddy's off, had to use a pair of pliers to break the seal on it

 

what are you doing playing with ur buddies rubber nehow?

 

Lol , burn

 

haha

 

any common vac leaks on ohv?

 

yes, a melted vacuum reservoir like the one you pictured... that is your problem! go fix it!

 

Why does the OP's pic remind me of the egg pods from ALIEN ?

OMG they're HERE !!
And they're in our trucks !!

No wonder so many on this site act the way they do , they're carriers !

 

I. Fixed it already. Haven't cleared code yet.

 

the code (and CEL) will not go away without clearing it after you fix that, remove neg bat terminal, turn head lights on, wait 30 seconds, turn head lights off, re-connect battery terminal

 

fixed the resevoir. still getting same codes (lean in bank one and two), I noticed that the ac compresser does not kick off or on also, air from defroster gets cold so i know i have refrigerant. any ideas?

 

hopfully you didnt burn up your turbo encabaculater
