 Hello,

I have one last vac hose let on the g  its a 300gel.  it is at the back of the inlet manifold. near the bulkhead and near the head.  just to the left of the oil filter as you look from the side of the car.  it has a rubber bend on it and had a white plastic vac pipe but i dont know when the other end goes to?

photo attached.

any help gratefully received as the epc vac  diagram makes no sense.

Hi
From your pic looks like it feeds the auto gearbox ..there is also a straight blanked rubber hose close to this area (  for checking vacuum leaks )...engine will no idle or start properly with any breach of vacuum 100% integrity

As fixwin38 has mentioned, it is the connection to your autobox.  That white hose has probably fallen and hidden its self to the bottom some where out of sight, when you have located it simply attach it to the rubber hose you are pointing to.
