Re: Can’t seem to find the other end of this hoes

Not quite sure on that, but usually the hoes tend to stick together in the area.
The problem with the hoes I hear, is their connection point gets loose over time so the connection doesn't stay in very easy...
Wear a glove when reaching in there, and careful of any fluids.
I hope this helps.

I believe that hose goes to a vacuum canister under the tray where the battery is. And judging by the dryness of what is in your hand, I would suggest replacing all of that circuit, at least, if not all your vacuum hoses under the hood

In a pinch, if the hose, while in your hand, shows some signs of dryness, you can use a non-petroleum based lubricant of gel which might help.

If that's the case, it's entirely possible that too much suction in the ball area caused premature release due to pressure from the hoes. Gotta be especially careful as these parts get older, one might suppose.

Re: Can’t seem to find the other end of this hoes

I think the vacuum hose goes to a brake switch then manifold vacuum. You might want to ask on this thread for the diagram.
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/tech...iagrams-i.html
It could go to the vacuum bulb under the tray that the cruise control is on.
Here’s a diagram. Looks like drew is right.

Re: Can’t seem to find the other end of this hoes

When your hoes become disconnected it means as previously stated it's gotten dry and worn slap out, probably time to upgrade all your hoes to new ones.

[QUOTE=Big&BadGTA;6185142]...wonder if the original poster was able to figure out his hoes?[/QUOTE

​​ya I got my all hoes back in line, just takes a bit it’s kinda hard to raise that pi$( hand with the little space given under the batary tray. But with a bit of work and and a lot of patience I got the all back in line. So they hopefully won’t be acting up for a while, cause any one who’s any knows the trouble that outta line hoes can cause. Thanks for all the help and a good laugh I was able to locate the correct spot for this hose once Im done with the steering column I will replace that whole vacume circuit
