what is purpose of this ?

I have 91 22re. What is the purpose of the resonator? I don't have a picture, but it is the plastic ball next to the throttle body and connected to the small tube going to the air box. Is it needed? Thanks!

Yes its part of the emissions (pair system), as well as a silencer so its not as loud. Hence the shape.

Yep it does connect to the pair valve. But other than being a siliencer does it serve any other purpose?

And I guess the rag could double as tp since you'd have to use the woods as your spare toilet parts are gone =)

just pick up a little air breather filter from the parts store and stick it right on top of the resonator

makes the noise a little more noticeable, but it works like a charm!

lol, well okay, a spare rag (or even that spare sock left over after the drier eats one) will work just fine
