EXTRA nipple ... for Vacuum Tubing.. ?
 

When working on my car, I noticed an EXTRA vacuum nipple just below, to the center, and back from the Throttle Position Sensor. In other words, I saw a ~6 mm nipple protruding from the throttle "body" on the driver side .. without any tubing connected to it.. . :eek:


WELL .. What is it? AND, do I need to have tubing there? Sorry I'm so uninformed.. Hmmm? :confused:

Thanks.. :D

Former coolant line for heating the throttle body? There should be one on the other side, as well. Zap us a pic, and we can tell you for sure.

Sounds reasonable! Cuz it's not attached.. and doesn't seem to have vacuum! So.. . I can just leave it open.. Huh?!

Thanks.. :D

If it's not connected on the other end, either (that one is in a similar location, but points toward the firewall, angled down) then you should be fine - my Silver's just like that!
