jhahler Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hi, I'm just about done replacing head gaskets and intake manifold gaskets on a 96 Grand Prix with a 3.1L and finishing this car. This site has been great help! Anyway, me and another guy have both been working on this thing, I'm not sure if he took this vacuum hose off or I did, but for the life of me I can't figure out where it goes! It goes down into the left front. I'm a newb, so bare with me if this is obvious. Vacuum diagram doesn't prove to be much help either, I think I have the rest of the vacuum hoses correct. Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks in advance. John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carkhz316 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 If it's the one I'm thinking of, it goes down to the vacuum canister, the black ball mounted in front of the splash shield, and behind the bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhahler Posted March 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 I googled vacuum canister, that sounds right, now where would the other end of this go to? Somewhere in the firewall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 It goes on the plenum on the passengers side. Theres a vaccum port, its brass, thats in front of the alternator. The line should run in front of the coils under the plug wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhahler Posted March 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Awesome! That's what must have been meant by accessories in the vacuum diagram. Also, one other question before this car's done, i'm on the last wire, the wiring diagram kinda sucks, and wires didn't get labeled well enough, anyone know where this wire goes? There's an identical one that goes into the canister purge valve, but this one's got me stumped. Thanks in advance! John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
