Default Random vacuum line?
I was looking the other day and i have a vacuum line coming from a piece on my fuel rail and can not find where it goes to. Its not buy 3in or so long. I do not have the air pump or any EGR stuff on my car. Dose this line have something to do with that or where dose it go. Has anyone else had this issue and what have you done to fix it?
