hi, I have a late corsa 1,2 which had a dispak engine. Ive recently fitted an xe to it.

Ive got one vac pipe (plastic small bore pipe with a rubber end) which doesnt fit anywhere. It coes thru the bulkhead by the master cyl, fuel pipes, throttle cable etc as far as I can see and runs along the back of the inlet manifold.

SAomeone has suggested its a fuel tank vent pipe? Where should it be connected to? AFAIK theres a valve for it on the end of the block by the DIS unit?
