I think I have it all worked out now, except the hose under the battery tray, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow night to work through that part of it. Someone before me had this thing apart, and has all the lines screwed up. I've been working on it as I find time. I have a '95 glt sedan that I'm driving now, and will be retired for parts when the turbo is on the road.

Ok, this is a picture of the hose under the battery tray that isn't connected to anything

What should this be connected to? I have the tray tipped up on it's end so you can see the hose that isn't connected.

Dunno maybe SAS line! Didn't pull my battery tray when I did mine so I'm not sure!

I think you're showing the cruise control pump. And if that's what it is, the bottom port doesn't go to anything - it should be open to the atmosphere.

Somebody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. The only time I have been under there, I was dealing with transmission shenanigans and didn't pay much attention.

I've looked around, and I don't see anything that it might connect to. The front of the battery tray is facing to the right in the picture. That hose comes out towards the front of the vehicle.

Yeah, that's the cruise control module and that hose doesn't connect to anything. I'm surprised you actually have a hose to begin with - I just have the little nub sticking out of the module. No need for a hose.

The hose will be removed than. Hopefully I'm good for a while. Thanks again.
