OK,

After replacing the head gasket over the weekend I have 1 vacum line left that I can't find where it goes....

(Yes I did label them.... Note to self don't use masking tape next time.... Some fell off)

Hoping someone can point me to where the vac hose that comes off the drivers side of the "black box" on top of the engine (NVH Silencer??) Goes too?

I suspect something to do with idle as she seems to idle at about 1000 1100rpm now even once warmed up so suspect it is related.

Using the manual I seem to have found where the others go but not this one.

Any help appreciated.

Have you checked the power steering pump - one goes down there. Should be two in total off the pump (assuming you've got power steering?)

Yeah they are both there... Thanks anyway!

One end is still marked so I'm almost definately might be possibly nah maybe have that end correct.... It is where it goes to that I'm not sure!

Thanks again

Ok, one goes to the power steering pump, the other goes to the metal valve thingy (that's the technical term :D ) that's bolted into the battery side of the inlet manifold. (The "thingy" has also got another smaller hose coming out the top of it that heads up to one of the sensors/ valves on the firewall.)

Thanks, got them but I have a third hose on the drivers side. (around the corner from those two)

Thanks for your efforts thus far

I just looked at mine, '93 Roza, and that plug you speak of on the black box has been blocked off with a cap.

Sorry, I misinterpreted your original request. :oops:

(Partly due to the one you're talking about being blocked off on mine as well.)

Well I have found a pic for a Feroza online that has the extra vac line (a 93) so this must be a bit hit and miss.... no luck yet finding where it goes!

Perhaps they've hooked up the gearbox/ transfer case breather to it? I know that place that did the box rebuild on mine did that.

93 would be after one of the model updates too. Mine is a May 92 and is just prior to the update.

Photos coming!

Nope thanks for the suggestion but gear box breather runs up near the washer bottle
