Vacuum hose diagram

When putting the air collector back on, I came up with a vacuum hose for which I couldn't find a place. It is a 3/8 hose with a white plastic nipple on it that looks like it should have 1/4 " hose attached. It comes out of the bottom of the air collector and is about 9 inches long, terminating just about at the intake boot. Can anyone tell me where this is supposed to go or connect to? If not, can you direct me to a site with a vacuum diagram? Thanks.

Eddie

Do you mean it's attached the the black elbow that goes to the throttle body, or the gray looking resonator/airbox, or the actual airbox itself? I'll try to remember how everything is routed and get back to you on that.

The hose comes down from under the throttle body and looks like it goes toward the elbow going into the throttle body. ( toward the driver side of the engine ) I have it plugged right now and the car will start fine. However, when I rev, the rpm's go down hardly at all. When I unplug it while running, the engine starts to sputter and cough. Thanks for any help.

there is one that goes in: if you are looking at your front valvle cover it up and to the right a little....you may need a flash light to see it because I had a hard time re-locating it even though I replaced mine one by one
