If you're referring to the 90 degree angle hose that goes from your TB to the irons then no, it's supposed to be bent at a right angle.

That hose carries collant. It goes through the throttle body its to warm up the area for the fast idle system. Theres a wax in the fast idle system that like melts and adjusts the idle when it reaches operating temp. Unfortunatly this system can **** up real easily and can mess with the idle. There is a check for it in the FSM but its a pain in the *** to do due to limited space. I had this same problem then i performened the TB mod and it completly went away.
