    That's a pretty big hose that would let a lot of unmetered air in if you pull it off. You'd stall too if somebody did that to you.

    Normal. And a leaky PCV will set a code, too. Don't ask me how I know, but glad that the hose in question (for an early millennia Taurus) is available in the 'HELP' section of the local autozone.
