Was in the process of replacing my fuel pressure regulator and I snapped the small plastic line that runs from firewall on the passenger side to what I believe is another sensor of some sort over by the TPS. I think is vacuum related Im not entirely sure. I just know its old and as I was trying to move it its just snapped like it was nobody’s business lol.

Cant think of a name for it but if anyone knows what its for or has a part number can you post it?

Pics are for reference

What year is your truck. What engine is it. I have had similar things happen to mine in different places. Sometimes you can replace that 90° elbow, with rubber hose as a temporary fix.

Yeah, you just have to be careful pulling on it. And, then don't panic, and freak out. Just take your time fooling with it. I have pulled mine on my 97, 5.7 Vortec before. It can be frustrating.

Haha too late. I ended up getting #4 in #2 i reassembled everything to get it to move into my garage boy was she not happy. The retainer clip broke so when I pushed it in to what I thought clipped in it went all the way in. My own ignorance. I guess its time to pull the head to get it out. Got new retainer clips ordered

Maybe #23 in the diagram below, 15971641 is the part number, seems like it is discontinued.

You must be registered for see images attach


Yeah thats the part. I guess Ill do what everyone else suggests and get the rubber vacuum hose to replace it.
