    Question vacuum system vl commodore

    Hello people, please help this silly fool... (Me)
    I had to replace the head on my 3L VL Calais.

    I did not label 3 hoses and pipes if you recognise them please point me in the right direction to connect them up. The VL manual that I’m using does not illustrate the picks at all.








    Many thanks for any constructive advice

    Regards Troy

    first pic is to fuel canister im pritty sure,
    as on my car i removed the canister and have plugged it

    second pic im not quite sure, think its fuel canister aswel

    third pic, big pipe runs to auto trans
    and small pipe connects to a little pipe which comes out of the firewall between the two heater pipes
    this is for your blower vents vacum

    last pic looks like the auto trans vacum line, that runs onto the bigger one as i stated in third pic




    ive been trying to figger it out for a while now as i had my engine out and every pipe was replaced, and going by what i can figger out in the books, pics and looking at the wreakers thats what its set out like

    hose 3 - pipe D it is to long, standard one is about two inches.
    pipe c as VL berlina 5speed said there is a little hose comes out from the fire wall between heater hoses and up to a little "T" piece from the "T" to pipe C

    and the 'T' piece in that line runs off to the vacum ball?
