I yanked these out of my 90 and found a cracked three-port "elbow" thing and "mushed" hose from elbow to intake manifold. Additionally, these pieces were coated with what appeared to be rubber cement and nicely wrapped up in electrical tape. I guess the previous owner/mechanic decided to rig it rather than spend the $4 on a new elbow and hose. Maybe this worked for some time, but not now; the vacuum leak was as plain as day when I checked it out. Chris 1988 90
