Bill Schickling Shop Shark B Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 338 Oswego, New York	What are those knarly little gizmo's that are sometimes attached to intake manifolds? It looks like an old grease cup, but it is inline with the vacuum line from the manifold. Is it a check valve or filter of some sort? Thanks, Bill Schickling 1940 1/2 ton, 1940 3/4 ton My web page
