How do I remove these things please?
« on: September 02, 2011, 06:28:53 pm »
Hi all.
I have a chrome cover for my engine bay but need to remove the 2 wires that you can see in the photograph.
Trouble is, i'm not sure what the wires do, so don't want to take them out and cause a disaster.
Anyone got any advice/ tips please?
And also how easy they will be to put back:

Are you talking about the catch can?  The black thing at the bottom of the picture?

The bigger one twists off (but is very easy to break) and the smaller one needs the metal clip removing.

Ok, thanks mate, just wanted to make sure that there wasn't any fluid or anything that could leak out of the pipe, Will give it a go tomorrow,
