Missing hose

[Ellie]

After some recent work cleaning valves and getting compression to a good level, I have lost a hose. There is one that hides right under the throttle body. Right where the black air hose connects to the throttle, in that area, but low down on the rear side of the throttle body, under the accelerator spring. However it has gone. I can see the lonely connection where the hose once joined and either the hose has come off and is hanging somewhere I can't see or has gone completely and become road debris. So while I can get a replacement hose that will fit the connector, does anyone know where the other end should connect to?

The original may even still be there hanging if I know where to look. In the mean time it sucks in air when accelerating making life difficult.

That one goes back to the distributor, and is used for the vacuum advance. Most any parts store can provide a vacuum hose that will fit!

You are a genius Rroller, thank you so much My vacuum capsule that sits underneath the distributor had a hose coming from it, I presume that's the one coz it was just running off...to nowhere really. But is now connected and runs like a dream. Thanks again

We love it when a plan comes together.
