Heat issue....:(

[Kim Johnson]

Two minute repair

There is a short rubber vacuum hose coupling between a vacuum valve and a
hard black plastic vacuum line. This is hiding down by the driver side motor
mount right by the ground strap. Either disconnected or degraded, cut a
short piece of vacuum tubing and slide it on, a couple of clamps wouldn't
hurt.

Please don't ask.....
(I would be embarrassed to tell the group how much effort it took for me to
find this on my car)
