AIR Block off on K&N FIPK?
What have you guys used to block off the hole on the K&N FIPK tube when you removed your AIR Pump?

I have a 94Z28...

Any help appreciated - Thanks.

Something in the range of a 5/8" vacuum cap (with clamp).

Thanks Rob. I will see what I can come up with. I know others have had creative ideas for various blockoffs and I wanted to see if there was anything creative for this one.

You really can't find anything cheaper than a 5/8" vacuum cap.

FYI, I just replaced a hose from there to the AIR system that I didn't know I was without for some time and I needed a 3/4" hose to fit on both ends.

Done
I snipped off the end on the FIPK and oiled up a 5/8 cap and it slid on with a little push. I reused one of the plastic clamps from the air line and we are all done with that one.

Thanks!
