RE: Wozzat pipe???:)

[Aleksander Mierzwa <alex@matrix.com.pl>]

It's the vacuum hose for the cruise control actuator. Look for the round
rubber thing with a rod connecting it to the throttle linkage: it should
have an empty nipple. Connect the hose to this nipple and the cruise
control should work again :-)
Your car should have a sticker on the radiator shroud with the
schematics of all vacuum hoses.
