The air it it outputting ( noce word) goes to the air intake portion of the engine and the throttle body under the air cleaner, so yes, it is likely inder there. Is is most likely near or under the air cleaner near the throat of the throttle body.

I drove my 16v out one a trip on the highway yesterday and got a rock thrown at me and chipped my windshield! Not fair! I got it sealed today so it would not spread, it is very small and someof it did go away but I can still tell you exactly where it is!

OOOH Sorry
I do try to stay back from cars
they kick up all sort of crap

It drives me crazy to see people taling a cement truck or some truck with all sorts of parts waiting to fly out at you...

Sometimes it just happens
least it wasn't soemthing like a big rock or a freakin tire

Thanks, it will help me to know the location been looking there
but now I know its there I'll find it if its there///
