Hey all.
What’s this hose for? I’m looking at a car which has a port for it on the engine but the hose is not there.
Thanks!

Should have a tube underneath that will suck warm air from under the 1-2 cylinders.
Part number 113-129-511. D or E

Thanks so much for the reply.
Where does it send the warm air, and what doesn’t work if it’s missing?
Edit: looks like it’s a pre-heating tube. Sends warm air to the air cleaner to preheat the air being drawn in. Does that sound right?
Edit: and then i found this!!!

Thanks for giving me a direction to go.
Thanks!
Craig

OK, you found it. However yours would use a bigger tube than the one in the 66 thread.

I need help identifying these parts. Looks like the glovebox lid is ghia, but not sure what years. The housing looks to be the same color as the lid so I’m assuming it’s also ghia? But not sure what it is since I’m not too knowledgeable with ghias. Please help me out. I’m also looking to sell these so that’s why I am asking. |
