So, I am wandering around the engine compartment, and noticing that all these places where the grey tubes used to go... if you take those off, the thing sucks air!

Where do all these holes go to? Where does that air end up?

I tried plugging them with gum, sucked it down! Cork, sucked it down! I whittled little plugs from a green piece of wood, yep, sucked it down!

I tried, in succession, mud, oily rags, balloons, epoxy, and small pebbles. Sucked them all down! I even tried forcing pieces of an old interior into the holes, that works until it gets hot, and the vinyl melts... "SHOOP!"

Where is this stuff going?

My car is running really rich when it's hot now, I was thinking if I could fill the area up where all the stuff is getting sucked into, I would save a little gas money.

Seanery told me that german motors need sand, what kind of sand do you guys use?
