Maybe I'm just ignorant but I found this kinda strange. I open up the dog house and there are two hoses in the front (1st pic)

I notice the hoses have what look like spark plugs crammed in them! Is this normal? :confused:

Lol, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say no, it isn't normal.
Obviously somebody has been in there that had no business doing so. Where do those hoses go on the other end?
 












The hoses seem go under neath the van, I haven't traced it down yet. I've been driving this Van for 7 years and never noticed this. :(
 






Well, its kinda normal.. I've done that before.

I used to have rear heat and a/c in my old 84 van. I just disconnected the rear heater hoses and shoved in some old spark plugs to keep things from going in there (wasps etc)..

Maybe what you have is what Maniak descibes. In that case I wouldn't be too worried about it. Did your van have the rear heat/AC?
 






Yes it does have rear heat and A/C, thanks guys. :)
 






LOL you bought Maniacs old van!
