PCV line onto aw11 throttle body
The PCV line on my engine has kinda fallen off, not from the cam cover but from the throttle body side. I tried to plug it back in but there doesn't seem to be anything that holds it in place. I've zip tied it on dodgilly for now but I want to make sure it fits securely. I can push it into the hole but it doesn't click, or screw in or anything. Should i just get some thread lock on it and put it in like that or is there a better method to hold this thing in. It's a metal tube that comes out of the TB and the PCV hose hooks onto it.
Cheers

Re: PCV line onto aw11 throttle body
Is it bottoming out? If not, just tap/hit/pound it in, after cleaning & checking that there is actually a 'metal ledge' that it will butt up against when fully seated. If the bore is straight through, expand the tubes OD by hitting it with something tapered, a center punch, drift, socket, whatever. Then a Thin smear of sealant and tap it into place.
Don't get it stuck on the taper so well that you mangle it up when removing it. The
