2001 2.3 Vacum lines

I have a 2001 2.3 ltr that I just put back into the truck, there are two vacum lines that come off the back of the intake plenum, these are those vinyl type lines I cant figure out were they go. I marked them with tape but the tape is smeared and I cant read what was marked on them. Does anyone have or know were I can get a vacum line diagram. The ynder the hood does not show these.

I didn't find any online, although I seem to remember coming across one a while ago. I'm guessing by the post date that you already figured this out. If you need pictures, I can take some of my engine bay and post them.

I almost gave up on this, if you have pictures that would be great, I have been everywhere no one seems to know, even the local Ford dealer does not have a diagram on it. These are two hard vinyl lines that come off the back of the intake, I cant figure out were they go, and I labeled everything too.

I have an 01 2.3 Ranger and at the back of my intake there are two barbs. One goes into an elbow that itself has two small spiral hard plastic lines one of which I believe goes to the air controls in the dash. the other lead goes someplace else. The second barb on the intake goes to a larger hose which runs down behind the engine along the firewall and to the PVC valve on the drivers side of the engine block. that hose is about 20in long and is wrapped in a extra foam tube for protection. hope that helps.

2.3 Vacum Lines

I went out and looked one of these lines is red underneath the plastic covering and one is white, the white one routes over to a hose near steering box, I think I have that one, its the red one that I dont know were it goes.
