Any help would be greatly appreciated. I believe my mechanic replaced this approx 30,000 miles ago. I have looked in my Haynes manual and I cannot find this part. Is there another name for the flame trap? Thanks John.

ISBN 1 85010 540 5 Matt

My wagon is a 4cyl. but I would think it's in the same spot. I will check below the exhaust manifold. Is it easy to remove?
