    What is this tube for?

    Hey all, I was poking around under the hood today and I saw this tube that is apparently not connected to anything...kinda looked like it was supposed to be this way, but then again, why would there be a tube that isn't connected to anything???

    OK, so it is supposed to be that way...thanks. I figured so, especially after I went looking for a pick of someone elses in the gallery.

    So this vent sucks air in or pushes air out? Just curious.

    Thanks - Bart

    I think it's actually the vent tube from the front axle, which is why it's looped over. If you look at the top of your front axle on that side you'll see a white nylon fitting sticking out of the top, and the tube attached to it should be that one.

    The emissions stuff is at the rear with the charcoal canister.
