I see a few small hoses but there is a wire that is mounted by a metal piece on top of the hose. I‘m replacing my hose Saturday but I don‘t know how to take off this metal bracket. I can reuse it right?2001 Mazda Protege
James W. you have an ASE and you don't know that a cruise control needs more vacuum than an intake tubelol And fuel pressure regs vacuum are run off the intake manifold like the cruise. 2001 import. yep, its got a Mass Air Flow Sensor! Map was an 80s thing. Why do people toot their own horns and then give bad info! Not trying to be a dick but really. The only good info you had there was bringing the car to a mechanic.
The other tubing is most likley vacuum lines for various apllications (cruse controll fuel pressure regulator ect) now, because of the year of the car i would say that it dose not have a mass air flow sensor its most likely a map (manifold absolute pressure sensor) dont go prying stuff apart, thats just bad advise. i would take it to a shop or let someone who knows what there doing fix it for you. EDIT: ? Lol yeah i said it backwards, i ment that it has a MAF not a MAP and i was using other vacuum lines for a point of refrence, not nessicarly exactly what they do, if i wanted to i could use Alldata or Mitchells on demand to tell you exactly what the lines are for. I wasnt tooting my own horn btw, its been a long week and its kinda hard to think straight right now.
the small hoses are breather hoses.are you putting in modified intake? the wire i would have to say is the master air flow sensor (MAF) the metal bracket would be the clamp. usually a flat head screw driver would take it off. some require pliers . and yes you would be able to use it.
