Help from 4.4i owner to Id pipe

Post by thomp1983 » Sun Apr 04, 2021 8:39 am

Hi all can anyone with a pre facelift 4.4i identify where the vacuum pipe that connects to the broken one my finger is pointing to goes to? Can't find it on realoem and can't see anything I've missed in engine bay

Just had a quick look at my 4.6 and it connects to a vacuum pipe that disappears behind the engine so I assume connects to either the Crank Case Ventilation or the Inlet manifold

Hope that helps
