I attempted to replace my lower intake manifold gasket and I never got past the upper manifold. It won't budge when I tried to move it out of the way. So I put back everything together. I was disappointed. And NOW my car WON'T start! I found this tube thingy. Could be the breather tube but I have no idea where it's located at. So I can't confirm if that's the problem. HELP! Please! What did I do?
Couple notes that might help you: I replaced all of my 6 sparks yesterday and it was working fine. Second note: I drained the coolant but the coolant conditioner thingy was still full.I'm guessing that I only drained the tubes or whatever. Could it be that?

What size engine do you have 3.1 or 3.8?
Is the tube thingy connected to any thing and do you know what it is connected to (location or anything that's near by)?
I'm not sure what the "coolant conditioner" is can you be more specific on what this is?
Talk to you soon, TY

Did you reconnect every sensor you disconnected? Double check.
