Should these go somewhere?

Was checking out my engine bay and did a pressure test on that plastic piece attatched to the intake manifold and checked some stuff out and saw 2 pipes that had no vacume hoses connected to the, are they supposed to be attatched to anything? Thanks







Also found this little guy barely hanging on so I redid the wiring for that sensor.

There are 2 of them that do not have any hoses, the other one is to the right of the one you can see and under it.

Yikes, that looks like a mess under there. If you were closer I'd offer to help you out free o charge, from an OEF vet to an OIF vet

In the first pic, that pipe is supposed to be left vented IIRC. Hard to tell much more from the pics. What's your boost pattern like?

From what I remember everything looks in order minus that frayed wire.

Thanks that would be awesome if I was closer. My unit is booked to go to Afghanistan in the future so if I extend my contract Ill go. Wouldnt mind getting that ribbon!

I am not sure what my boost pattern is, I do not have a boost gauge , the Rx7 keeps going into limp mode going on 2 months now so I was checking all the sensor connections and vacuume lines to see if I could get to the bottom of it. So far ive fixed a boost leak and rewired some connections that looked rough.

Car battery was installed backwards and must have fried something.

yep, they are for the auto where yet another vacuum tank resides in those models.
