Vacuum Hose Problems- HELP!


Recommended Posts

I have been changing my AOS. Everything is going well except that I am having problems getting the vacuum hoses hooked up properly. My car is a 1999 C2. I have several hard plastic/rubber hoses however I cannot figure out where a few things are supposed to go.

From the check valve (the one above the alternator)- I have two hoses coming out- one comes out of the check valve via a rubber elbow connector, the other tube is about 1.5 feet then it connects to a + rubber connecting piece. I cannot figure out where the hoses coming from the + rubber connector are supposed to connect too.

The four points of the + rubber connector are as follows-

1.- tube going into the + connector from the check valve (the one above the alternator)

2.- One of the tubes coming off the + connector has a round white/black piece then a hard hose- I think that this connected to the front intake connector butterfly valve (I remember this from when I removed it

3.- one point on the + connector has no tube

4.- broken tube (appears to have been broken prior to my work due the dirt)

I realize that two hoses are supposed to connect to two intake connector adapters (I already have the one on the righ side of the car connected as it comes from a different location)

I am in desperate need of help. I have been searching for quite a long time and have not found any answers. I have also search my shop manuals and also didn't find any info.

Thanks,

Steve
