i did a search about this but didnt find any answer

last night i tried to remove my HR engine cover while the car is running, i started by the bolt in the middle, once i removed it i noticed the hole trying to vacuum my finger inside!!!

is it normal, because its part of the intake manifold?

 

I'm just trying to figure out why you thought that it was a good idea to remove the engine cover while the engine was running.

 

why?

 

hmmm, i have no smart answer

i forgot i guess.. anyways i only wanted to remove the upper plastic cover.

is it normal that the small hole sucking air?

 

serious?

 

Yes it's normal, It's called vacuum & it's high at idle, Should be around 22 in/hg .

 

picture of hole!

Why? isn't it plugged?

 

This thread is definitely delivering the lolz today.. lol

 

Did your mother drop you on your head? Or were you just born like this?

 

I initially thought this was a "pull my finger" fart joke… then realized he was serious.

 

Thanks. Now we are getting a warning from Nissan don't stick your wiener into vacuum hole while car is running.

 

I was expecting the same thing.

 

I think if u show us photo of your hole somebody understands a reason of your problem!

 

I think what the OP is saying is there is a strong vacuum leak from the intake plenum into the threaded bolt hole. Don’t you think this may caused by a casting flaw or crack etc and should not be present?

Given country of origin of this post, quite possibly English is the OP’s second language. If so, it’s excellent and a lot more lucid than the usual ghetto slang that is the parlance of this site.

 

Sounds like a pirate word

 

Agreed.

But yeah WTF would you expect...Hey a dark open hole in my running engine where I can just about fit my finger, let me see what it'll do?

Must be great with the ladies too.

 

pokin' and proddin'

 

OP, could you post some pictures or videos of this so we can help diagnose the problem ?
