Help! I need one of these (whatever it is).

Post by lneil »

It's a vacuum fitting from the inlet manifold of an auto Escudo 8-valve TBi. Does anyone have one, or know if its available anywhere? I broke the pipe connection off and its too small to glue.

It fits in this threaded boss on the rear of the inlet manifold:

and connects to this 'thing' on the firewall:

I have no idea if its a specific Suzuki part or whether it is a generally used aftermarket item.

While I'm asking questions, does anyone know exactly what it does? The vacuum pipe connects to a strange flat little canister-type thing mounted on the firewall.

Chris, you're a bloody marvel!

I went in to the parts dep't today and they couldn't find anything for it. Now I've got a part No. it should be a piece of cake (he said hopefully).

Many thanks.
