Running Like SH-T - Chromey - 03-30-2011
2000 ZX3
WOnt hold an idle.
When driving Everything is great.
When stopped Putter,putter.
I have a ACT chip, EGR bypassed.
Thinking its a vaccum leak, But i cant find it.
I know the Focus has had issues with leaks, But where?

That is indeed the PCV hose, but your arrow is pointing to the wrong part no. ... anything that starts with a "W" is a nut or bolt or clip.
The number you're looking for is specifically XS4Z-6N664-BA.
Having said that, your symptoms could also point to a bad DPFE.

yeah if that pcv hose is originial, not replaced before, upgrade.
ford redesigned pcv hose with heatshield insulation around and it is a bit thicker.

What Ken said. I had to replace mine back in the day.
RE: Running Like SH-T - Chromey - 03-31-2011
I already know the hose is split... So ill try that first.[/align]

PCV hose Fixed everything.
Nice cheap fix.

Easy to replace?? And did you grab it from a ford dealer?
RE: Running Like SH-T - Chromey - 04-01-2011
If it takes you longer then 10 mins.... Go hide under a bed.
Take your intake off and go to work.
From what ive been told, Dealer only part.
