EGR Valve

Hey I got a question I'm changing my injectors to replace the mismatch ones so there all the same brand and thought why I had it torn down I would go ahead and replace the EGR valve the old one looks all rusty now it my be good but I thought what the hell its a cheap part. Well when I took the old one off it looks like the vacuum line was not hooked up an I was wondering how would that make the car run with it not hooked up and I know it may be a dumb question but I was thinking it would be like a vacuum leak making the motor run rough. And also I'm trying to figure out where the vacuum line went to I think I know where there's a black rubber block near the distributor which has one vacuum line and what looks like a place for another.

Re: EGR Valve

Tpi ?
the vacuum is ported from under the tb. It goes from the tb to the solenoid then onto the egr.

Yeah that make sence the other vacuum line runs from the tb so I guess that black rubber box is the solenoid.
