Plug it or if you have valve cover pcv breathers hook em up there.  Its a vacuum leak and it'll make you idle like crap and lean as hell if you're driving it like that.

What I do is buy a case of some decent wine and make the rounds "before" I do obnoxious shit.

best $75 you'll ever spend.

It seems to pay in the end.

My kind of neighborhood...

Here, I have several retired folks and a couple of real asshats... I live in a super quiet cul-de-sac near an elementary school.

i take it down to the harbor, pay $12 and drop it in the water for the loud stuff.  living close to water pays off.
