Hey guys,
Sorry if Im posting this in the wrong spot. Still new to this forum.
I have a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT V6 3.0L
and I noticed this tube just hanging there after I replaced the DPF Sensor and
I have no idea what it is. Some type of pump?
Any help is appreciated!

 

No Idea what this part is on my 2000 Ford Ranger 3.0 L.
Any ideas? The tube broke off inside it.

 

That's the vaccum pot for the vacuum operated heater valve.

 

Thanks! Thats what I needed to know. Not sure if it was easy to take off and put a new tube in it.
Cant find a part number anywhere.

 

That rubber elbow will come right off. Finding that vacuum hose as an OEM replacement will be the hard part. Might want to visit your local auto parts store and find their vacuum hose section and see if they have a kit or parts that will allow you to put a new elbow on that vacuum hose once you cut that broken tip off the line.

 

Thanks!!!!
Thats exactly what I was trying to find out. Didnt want to touch it till I knew what it was. Figured id break it.
Ok, cool! I'll give that a try and hope it works out!
Thanks again for the help and info!

 

You're welcome. Good luck with it.
