That hose is connected on both ends.... LEft side looks to be connected straight to the IC piping, Right hand side... well... i am guessing it has to be connected to the intake pipe as there is nothing else below the compressor elbow where the pipe is going down there.... so he would be hitting boost cut... but he will also be getting an innacurate boost reading ?

That's the float sensor in your brake master cylinder, top off your brake fluid.

Have you tried resetting the computer to wipe any corrective measures that have built up over time? If not, you just disconnect the battery for about twenty minutes to restore the defaults.

Yea, that hose either needs plugged off on both ends, or you need to get a recirculation/BOV put in there.

Well I'm now the proud owner of this vehicle. He actually never got the head properly back together as the timing was off. I've fixed that issue and am currently working on getting everything else fixed. But hey this is exciting didn't think I'd find the car I bought on here.
