Hose Help
I was wondering if someone could tell me which hose this is ? I need to order one, mine has a small hole in it(not sure how). I got it outlined as you can see. The car shown isnt my car, too rainy to take a pic, but it works


Thanks

So you have two hoses circled...I think...I can look when I get out of work to be sure. But it looks like you have the slave cylinder off of the fluid resevoir circled and some other hose. If it is not the Slave cylinder it is the Brake Master Cylinder you have circled.

yes its called a vacuum leak. unmetered air gets sucked into the engine. fix it asap or you will fry the engine by running it too lean.
