I did intake boots last night, and a new crank pulley with new belt. After re-assembly, the car will start, but shut off immediately. If I give it gas, it'll run, but not well. After I disconnected both vacuum lines from this, vehicle will now start and idle. After it's running, I can hook both lines back up, and it will continue to run fine, but if I shut if off, I have to repeat the process. Nice theft deterrent, but I'd prefer the traditional way of starting the car by "turning the key and go"... So I'm I'm thinking I probably whacked this thing with the belt tool and damaged it... So- What the F*&K is it, so I can get a new one!!!! LOL....

 

In case anybody else is looking- It's the Purge solenoid valve.
