Vacuum line questions
We just purchased an 86 GMC Sierra 2500 that runs, but does a pretty crappy job at it.
What we discovered is that there are 2 vacuum lines disconnected. One of the lines comes from the carb and splits into a "T". One side of the T goes down into the carb or engine somewhere, but the other side of the T looks like it's been ripped apart. When cranking, there is some suction on the line, so it obviously needs to go somewhere. The other disconnected line comes FROM the breather, but we don't know WHERE it goes. There is an unoccupied male connector connected to the distributor, but we're not 100% that's where this second hose goes (Although when we put the breather on, the hose does sort of rest next to the distributor) So is there a diagram of where all the hoses go from our breather? Kevin EDIT: Pictures of our question hoses are attached. The PURPLE hose is one of our question hoses. I think it connects to the male connector on the distributor (WHITE), but I'm not 100% sure on that. The RED and BLUE hose connector at a Y and a single hose goes down to the carb area. The GREEN hose is our broken hose that has suction when we turn on the truck. We just don't know where it should go, and we can't find any other open male ends..just the one on the distributor. The GREEN hose's "T" is on the "B" port of the carb.
