    Forward vents don't work....help!

    My forward air vents just stopped working. Only the defrost and floor vents work. Did some research and found that the vacuum tube has snapped off near the passenger side headlight. What the heck is this replacement tube called???? Can't find a pic or name on the internet. It's about 4 feet long and less than an 1/8" diameter tubing....

    On the passenger side shock tower in the engine bay right behind the hood lift shock mount there is a small vacuum check valve. My guess is it's cracked or no longer working properly.
    New one is around $5 at the auto parts store

    Looks similar this

    I found the splitter but the actual tubing has snapped in half, so I need a whole new 4 foot tube. I don't know what it's called and can't find it on internet search engines....

    Have you tried your local auto parts store? They'll probably have tubing/hoses that will work.

    Just trying to figure out what to call it. I'll take a pic and bring it with me to the auto parts store...

    They might be clogged.

    Like Alex posted, use the silicone vacuum hose and splice it onto the undamaged factory line.
