I was just poking around under the hood, and notice some holes on the intake manifold that don't have anything in them.

I was wondering if there should be.

Click on the links below to see pictures of what I'm talking about. The red arrows point to the holes in question.

Please tell me if something is supposed to be in them or not.
If so, what?

Thanks!

Adam,

I'm not positive, but I seem to remember that my engine ad the same hole. Never thought twice about them. I could be wrong though, I haven't seen my car since August.

Yeah, ingore them. They're just for mounting stuff that you don't have. One size fits all manifold. Joe

Not that it matters anymore, but my mom just got back to me, and I have those holes on my engine as well.
