what is this vacuum line going to?

[CAD_GA1390]

Upon putting on my TRD intake, i noticed i had to get a longer vacuum line for this piece:



anyone know what this is for? THE ORANGE VACUUM LINE ... i was thinking dual stage intake manifold? doesnt the V6 have that? not sure what else. had it unhooked for a day while getting the longer line...didnt seem to make any difference....

If your referring to the orange one in your picture, it went to your old breather box that has your hfc filter mounted in it. Look at your factory box on the side that faces the fire wall on. Was a 6" hose before.

Not sure where it goes to, but , line heads towards the fuel tank, maybe stops before then didn't crawl the that far.

Hey Len , might didn't have that ? Looks like some add-on deal but to what ?

What the orange hose he has or the vacuum diaphragm it's hook to. Be a little exsplicite.
I can take a picture of what I have for you. Just be gentle of this old body trying to crawl around.

Not sure of the purpose, you probable can ask BLACKWORKS, he would know.

As far as the nipple, ancient Chinese secret sh!t that the Japanese didn't install. :lol:

Serious, there are 2 hoses like that in there, 1- is for the transmission breather and the other is the transfer breather. Extended them up higher incase I go submarining again. I haven't gone and get a double hose mount yet to make it factory looking installed.

Its for the Fuel Pressure Regulator, feeds off the vacuum from the intake system.

Why does everyone type my name in capitals? Is that supposed to be my Bat Signal? LoL

[oljedi11950]

[having fun]

So that means I never expect to see you using capitol letters when replying to me RIGHT.

I broke the oe connection on the airbox where this hose plugs into. What kind of effect would this have if left unplugged?
