I was under my hood the other day and i noticed that there was some fluid that had leaked on the side of the engine. I roughly traced it back to a valve that lies under the air filter. I can't find anywhere what this valve is! The valve is like 2in high and has a spining cap on it. Outside of taking it to a mechanic, is there anywhere i can find out what this valve is?
