hey guys,
I have a loose vacuum line and i can't figure out what it is for. I've checked my FSM and searched the forum and no luck. Here's the hose im talking about.
After the MAF there is the large hose for the resonator and a second hose that is smaller. There are two vacuum lines that are cliped onto this second hose with little plastic clips. The lower of these hoses (the one that is clipped farther down) is the hose that is disconnected.
The hose comes up and makes a U shape so that the opening is pointing down. It doesn't seem to be sucking or blowing air so that wasn't a help. All i know is that the other end of the hose goes somewhere underneath the resonator where i can't see or reach. I'd really appreciate knowing whether you have this hose and where it connects. Thanks!!

Sounds like the tranny vent to me.

Also could be the vent off the bottom of the charcoal canister, my '91 has this. It toke me forever to figure out what it was for, my tranny vent is only a short metal tube.
