Default What did I break??

Broke a hard vacuum line off of the manifold. Traced it only to find that it was connected to nothing and already broken further along lol.

Comes off of the passenger side of the keg and goes toward the front drivers side of the engine bay, sorta towards the battery but obviously it was broken so I can't tell.

*The red cap near the manifold is just a cap to keep debris out. It was were the thick rubber connector on the end of the line attached.

You the man J415! Lol checked the Chilton's and you're right, would explain why it hasn't worked since I got it.

Many thanks

when you put a new vacuum line on there, make sure that the cruise control servo doesn't have any holes eaten in it from battery acid. if there is then the cruise still won't work.

Thanks Sheriff I will be sure and double check that. If the acid has eaten through I'm assuming I can just replaces the servo as a whole unit?
