I just bought a 2001 Civic EX and I'm not familiar with everything yet. I found this part under the front driver's bumper this morning. What is it? Where does it go?





I know it's not an S2000 but nobody's on the Civic board and the guys/gals are more informed over here. For what it's worth, I do want to buy an S2000 once the kids are off my payroll.

 

hmm, hard to tell. is it plastic? how big is it?

 

It's your Heisenberg Compensator...the hyperdrive won't work till you put it back under the seat.

 

^^i thought it was the drain plug for the flux capacitor? hmm guess i was wrong.

 

It's not an OEM part or fastener.

 

It is an electro-buttplug.

 

how hard is it to just say i dont know... that is kinda mean

 

Too funny guys. They moved it and I had to search to find my own thread.

It's about 1 3/4" long and black plastic, looks clean and dry so I'm thinking somewhere in the intake, airbox area. It looks new to me so I'm really perplexed. Is there a vacuum line on the VTEC which uses one of these? PVC related maybe?

 

no clue,

was it attached to anything?

 

What about air temp sensor (cover) part? Do Honda cars have a sensor tied to the ECU for external air temp?
