    First picture is the HVAC vacuum line that runs along the firewall over the pass side strut tower and then down the firewall into the cabin.

    2nd picture looks like the Temp sensor under the theromstat, but I might be wrong.

    3rd picture is of the back of the Boost solenoid, thats suppose to be open to the air.

    look for the vac line down the back of the engine, thats when mine fell to. for pic one.

    pic two does look like it goes to the short harness off the temp sensor under the t stat housing.

    3rd is like five said, its should be open to air.

    and make sure the fat vac line off the top of the TB is not cracked. mine snapped when i did my lim. along with every T and vac line end i took off.

    it controls the air flow in the car. vent to defrost and so on.

    what did you break? the plastic line? if so just break cut it of clean, use a 2 inch piece of vac tubing to splice it back together.
