Problem is that foam breaks down over time... right?

That's why I used the waterresistant version of the foam. Did some tests on it and def sticks around a lot longer than te regular one. I had some sealings done with this stuff 10 years back and it still sits as it should, same size. So it's a choice......Hopefully the foam is still affordable in let's say 10 years....?!

I took it out to replace the fittings and clamps and it has a foam in the back that disintegrated completely when I pulled it out. I wanted to understand what it does in order to repair it. Also...

  3. What is this for?

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Working on the new purchase, front shocks today removed air cleaner and noted this little part on the fire wall with a screw in the end. So it has something to do with vacuum, there is one next to it hooked to vacuum. Still waiting for my service book to arrive so I will have a reference...
