Vacuum Line End Point?

1108 Views 5 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  ichris93,

I need to know where the other side of this vacuum line goes. The old line was totally rotted out so I have no idea of it's end location. I've found vacuum diagrams, but I can't seem to find this line. Every other one is accounted for. It blows a significant amount of pressure out while running. Any ideas?

Possibly. It could need to go to the middle hose in the 6th picture that has a small circle around it. Mine has nothing attached to it, but it's a different diameter than the lower side. Will take a look though.

The lines are different post and pre facelift I think. My car is a postface lift, while yours is pre facelift.

You will have to find someone with a pre facelift model to help. Maybe @El_Toro_33809 when he is back in town.
