Air Flow Meter Boot, Rein - E36 318i/318ti M44, Z3 1.9

The rubber intake boot connects the air flow sensor with the throttle body boot on the E36 318i/318ti M44, Z3 1.9. It's after the air filter and mass air meter so any rips or tears on the boot material will allow unfiltered and unmetered air into the engine. And since vacuum and air pressure within the engine are closely managed, any air leak can be a serious problem. Air leaks from a cracked intake boot can cause your E36 318i to run rough, poor idle, throttle surging, stumbling, hesitations, and misfires. These can be caused by other things but a leak in the intake boot is easy to check and inexepensive to fix!

This is an intake boot manufactured by Rein Automotive - an original supplier to BMW for many other engine parts.
