I keep forgetting to check mine, but I don't have any idle problems or anything. I'll have to remember to check it today.

Dude, zip tie it...takes 3 mins and prevents you from blowing your motor....Also replace the FP relay if you haven't yet....

use a zip tie, the clamps that look like a hook that you have to squeeze together, or you can put a little bit of loctite or super glue on the tube then put the hose back on. Either way you go it shouldnt come off again.

i have the jumping idle from about 500-900 rpms only when stopped, i checked this line and it is zip tied, yet the problem remains.

anyone else continue to have a rough idle after checking this line?

It's prolly just the stock '08 tune. The tune from the factory sucks. Either get a tune, or Cobb AP or live with it..
