Suzuki Sidekick unknown hose
Does anyone know what the hose in the engine compartment behind the
left side of the radiotor is? it leads nowhere, and it has a plastic cap over it. It is also clipped onto the radiator hose for support only, it has no function with this hose. The hose itself is about 3/4 inch diameter, and leads all the way down to the bottom of the engine, possible the crankcase, or possibly the oil pan. Help, please, my guess is that it is the direct manifold vaccuum line. But i'm not sure. It could also be the CCV system hose, but i doubt that one. |

Sounds like the vent for the front differential to me. -- New service to compete with paypal Get $25 pre-registration bonus by following this link www.greenzap.com/25smackers4u |

Anyone have any other ideas? I don't think that it would be a vent,
because it is capped off, and there is no way for air to escape without blowing the cap off. |

I think someone already answered this... It is the vent for the front diff. That 'cap' is not a cap but a trap that allows air to move but not water. If you don't believe us, crawl under the truck and follow it to where it ends. |
