Hello

I need someone with knowledge of a 1.4 16v engine for a vuaxhall tigra, i've done a head rebuild it's all back together but there is one pipe that i have no idea where it goes, tried to read manual etc but not joy, and a couple of other pipes that are attached to something but not sure where they go either. If someone local would like to give me a hand i would appreciate it please.

Thanks

if its what i think it is then that sounds like one of the vacuum pipes that goes from a sensor to the brake servo

the vacuum pipe from the brake servo goes across to the passenger side suspension strut and there should be a squarinsh sensor plug there, at this plug there should be another vacuum pipe which goes across the the front between engine and radiator and connect onto part of the secondary air pump
