F Felix New Member Jun 27, 2010 #1 Hi ya'll Can you tell me what this bit does? The hose on the left is rotten like the cruise vacuum hose on discos. Is it important enough to need replacing? I can't see where the other end goes apart from joining a much larger metal pipe under the inlet manifold. Cheers Felix
