    How snugly is that fitting supposed to be? Right now it doesn't take much to move it up and down on the nipple on the FPR. I'm wondering if because it's so loose I have a slight vac leak there. It's loose enough that I'm not sure it wouldn't blow off under boost. It's not as secure as the fitting on the LIM or on the MAP sensor.

    Mine is loose too, Even with a new vacuum harness. I just threw a small zip tie around it and have been fine. Actully I used small ones on every fitting on that vacuum harness... figured i'd might as well for the hell of it...

    I threw a zip tie on it and I'm much more satisfied. Seems to work pretty well.
