Automatic Transmission Vacuum Line

Post by spidernut »

I ran into a snag putting my car back together after the engine rebuild. I have only one thing that that has me baffled. There is a vacuum line from the automatic transmission module to the intake/carb. I cannot find where the vacuum line connects from the metal line to the intake/carb. The Fiat shop manual doesn't show it and apparently the label I made must have fallen off. None of my pictures show it either and my old brain can't recall.

Anyone know where it connects? I can't find an open vacuum connection anywhere.

I found it. I labeled it but it got tucked underneath near the thermal control valves.
