From where it's located, I would guess that it goes to the air pump. There should be a sticker under the hood with a diagram for the vacuum lines. These are also found in the factory service manual.any ideas?
is your "ticking" similar to this?Thanks. One is ticking loudly and it's super annoying.
i believe that goes to the bottom of the air cleanerI have a follow up question. I started following the vacuum lines and I found this one plugged. I have no idea where this is supposed to go. Does anybody have any ideas?

I think so too and I don't think there's a vacuum line like that to air pump and that idling video definitely sounds like car has a serious vacuum leak or faulty lean burn computer. Some of that ticking sounded like fan, clutch or pulley.i believe that goes to the bottom of the air cleaner
Thanks I appreciate it. One of the previous owners was just was a complete idiot with this car. With how bad the paint is cooked off the hood I'm not surprised the sticker is gone.The top of at least one of the solenoids should be open.
No air pump confirms where that line went then.
It's rare for the label to be missing it should have been in the cut out near the front of the hood. But here's from the 87 manual
I'm still confused as to why someone would loop one to the other. And deleting the smog pump... like did they think it would help on this crappy set up?Originally there was proably a tiny foam filter on the solenoid vent port(s). They generally only last a couple years before the deteriorate and fall off.
All it's really doing is sealing my driveway right below the tail pipe at cold start. Idk what fun stuff is in that cold start exhaust but man does it coat the asphalt really goodMaybe someone thought something was missing and they were supposed to be looped?
People used to remove air pumps thinking it robbed power. If they did it was probably minor but they can also seize up if they sit for a long time so maybe that's what happened?
