Hi Guys,
First time posting here, I know Joey from another forum he runs and I'm having a hard time finding a part I need for my TC, I figure this would be as good a place as any to get info.
Long story short the car was chugging on acceleration when idling it would almost stall and run very rough, I figured it needed a tune up which we got yet the problem persisted, back the mechanic it went. It turns out the piece on top of the engine that says "V8 Dual Overhead Cam" is cracked all the way around, thus letting air in to the system where it shouldn't be. the piece is circled below. The best way I've figured to describe it is where the carboruter cover would be in an older car.
I cannot find the specific name or part number for that piece, I've been to three junk yards and gotten the run around or they want to sell me the whole assembly from the air cleaner back, which I don't need, for an exuberant price.
Does anyone know the specific name to that piece? If so, do tell please. If anyone has a spare laying around that they want to sell let me know I'd be happy to take it off your hands.
Thanks in advance,
Dan
