Could it just be plug off for the time being???

Sorry for using your thread for the info Chris so I will ask a related question. Are you going to work on your truck this weekend?? These parts are wanting a home.
The ether atomizer nozzle is mounted in the intake plenum. I would imagine there is a one-way check valve in the nozzle. If there isn't, then you will lose a small amount of boost pressure out of the orifice when the turbo is producing boost, but nothing more. You should be able to feel any air escaping with the engine revved up.

As for my truck, no I am not working on it this weekend as I'll be in WV visiting my in-laws. I plan on getting down there to work on the engine next Wednesday or at the latest, next Saturday. I'll email you a want list soon
