I found a missing vaccuum hose from the advance on my distributor, just hoping someone can tell me where it needs to hook up to i'm thinking on the intake somewhere. and also i want to know if that would cause sluggish acceleration on takeoff! thanks in advance for your help!

 

It would help to know the year, make and model of the car!

 

It's a 84 VDP 4.2

 

Under the intake manifold is a "vacuum distributor"....about the size of a small, round aspirin bottle. It has three vacuum nipples. One of them goes to the distributor vacuum advance. Take a peek and see if one of the nipples is vacant. if so....there ya go !

Yes, this could cause low power.

Cheers

I will check that out.
