    First you guys have been great with my rookie questions. I TRULY APPRECIATE IT. I bought the MAV as it was my first cars ago and really want one to be proud of.

    Anyway inside the hood, just under the passenger washer fluid nozzle is a round part with some hoses. What part is that? Its not a washer fluid pump, thats in the resovior. It is just under the hood, just below the passnger washer nozzle.

    Thanks

    I believe that would be the heater control valve.

    It is a vacuum operated switch that cuts off water flow to the heater coil when using air conditioning. Makes it more efficient.
