My Corvette(s):
1987 Coupe, Dark Red Metallic
Default Cruise control hose routing

My 87 Coupe had to go to the shop for a power brake booster replacement. Apparently they worked loose one hose for the cruise control.
The hoses run like this: From the vacuum canister inside the driver's side front fender to a plastic "T". From that plastic "T" a hose runs to the cruise control servo. Another hose runs from the plastic "T" to, I suppose, a vacuum intake somewhere in the engine. I found that hose resting against the exhaust manifold, so part of it was burned. I've looked everywhere and cannot find where this hose connects. There is another hose that runs from the servo and connects to the base of the power brake booster and that one is in place. I've looked in both Haynes and Chilton manuals and they don't give me a clue where that hose goes. It is a small diameter rubber hose. Anyone out there can help? Thanks.

My books are with my Corvette, and my Corvette is about ninety miles from me, but I think I can help (if I remember the routing correctly).

The hose connects to the vacuum damper at the rear of the intake manifold. It's a plastic, cylindrical (sorta) device with several little tips sticking out from it to which you attach the vacuum lines. I think that's where it connects. ( It's been a couple of months since I removed mine.)
