i broke this...vacuum fitting...is this ford only? urgent reply needed

[ThePhoenix]

I cracked a t-fitting that seals air on the crankshaft ventilation

this is the part that connected the crankshaft vent to the intake...I am concerned that a regular t-fitting wont work as the hardened hoses are wider than the structured flexible hoses.

anyone?

its rather urgent as it stalls in every intersection...:roll::roll:

you could probably find a fitting a at auto place it doesnt look to big if anything you could look a a hardware place i know there are some for sprinklers that might work

What engine? On my 4.0 SOHC it looks something like that. A black plastic T on the small end of the PVC and the bigger end of the PVC is stuck into a hose.
Its all located on the passenger rear side of the engine. If that's the case, it may be a dealer item.

it IS a 4.0 SFOHC... the stealership said that I have to buy the whole hose.

so I got a couple of feet of hose from auto parts store and a t-fitting. I got the top two hoses cut apart (they have a hard plastic inner sleeve...

I got the top two attached to the intake...but the hose that goes into the block, down the FRONT of the engine, I cannot reach here at work.

I HATE to take the intake off again to do this....that would be rediculous...so I am going to wait till I get home and cut the tube with some snips and then splice a tube onto it.

what a pain.

advice...dont break this hose

can anyone tell me where the bottom hose goes to?

 

[ThePhoenix]

wait...does the other end of this lead to the DPFS (sorry, cant remember initials) on the drivers side?

that would save a bunch if I knew where bottom tube went

 

[BobWiersema]

I'll go look at mine.

That looks like it runs behind the thermostat and under the air pump, it may be connected to the air pump.
If you can splice it, I would do that. Looks like a ***** to get to. How in the world did you break that?

when I was taking off the intake, I took the clip off one side holding the hose, but didnt do the other...so when I swung the intake over the egv dipstick,....snap, the t-fitting broke

dealers wants $60...and I would still have to find the other end of the bottom hose
