Rough Idle issue
So I took the intake off last night and it turns out my hose that connects to the bottom of the intake is torn up. I’m wondering if that was from me trying to finagle it out or if it was already like that. I can’t seem to find any cracks or tears on the hose connection to the auxiliary air valve, so I’m going to assume the intake hose was causing the leak

I can get a photo tomorrow as I am away from the car at the moment. If this helps though here is the parts diagram, hose #15

Hard to say how it got damaged, but if taking it out tore it up, then it wasn't in very good shape in the first place. Fingers crossed that was it...
The intake was also missing the lower bolt that secured it too, so I’m wondering if the intake was loose enough to move around while driving causing excessive wear. The new hose is ordered along with a new tps on their way
