was working in the engine bay today and ended up poping this line out....I havent had the car for long, and havent gotten my haynes manual yet so I cant for the life of me figure out where it goes...the picture shows the end of it and the resti fo it is in the background....you can see the clear hose plugs into a metal inline thing that connects to other hoses.

Really hard to tell from that picture. Is the car a 1.7 or 2.0? My guess is a 1.7.
Boy, time to replace the battery tray and some of those rubber/plastic hoses with the real McCoy ones especially the high pressure fuel injection ones before you have a fire, My wild ass guess is the MPS. Geoff |

Oh ok I see the MPS under the decel valve. I would hook that hose back up to the flux capacitor, Chewie!

Does it hook up to the anti-flashback thing above the thermometer cable, where it attaches to the cooling flap arm? There should be three hoses on it...??

The MPS is a manifold pressure sensor. It's aluminum, and about the size of a hand grenade.
If you look in your photo, you have a thin clear vacuum line going to the small fitting on it. It's just below/behind the battery. -Rusty |

That metal sleeve looks like it mates with either another hose or a fitting/elbow.
On my 74 2.0 I have a sleeve like that that connects to the PCV elbow on the oil filler tower cap. |

ok, so i took another look. there are 3 hoses connected to the MPS. 2 black ones and the clear one im trying to find a home for. looked on the air filter and can see 2 hoses connected to it....but cant find a place for a third like in the diagram.....I think I am missing something totally obvious here. again, sorry for the dumb questions, but I'm not familiar w the car yet.

The MPS only has one hose.
Look down by the head on the right hand side. There should be a hole in the engine tin close to one end of the head (I think the rear) that you can slide that hose back into. You might need a flashlight to look down in there. |
