name that part :)

ok - so this is on the passenger side of my 1997 z28 LT1 (w/automatic transmission in case that's relevant here). as you can see in the picture, there's a fitting that seems to want something connected to it but i've no idea what. what is this part, and what is supposed to go to that rubber elbow? i don't have any stray hoses/tubes, unless something is hooked up to the wrong thing somewhere else. i looked through shoebox's reference site, and i may have missed it but i don't see it anywhere.

adv-thanks-ance...


what the heck is this thing?

That is the vacuum detection switch for the EVAP purge system. If you are concerned about the short hose coming off the bottom, that is a “vent” and does not get connected to anything.

Shoebox has the diagram from the factory service manual.
