X84GNBD 2.5 petrol manual estate
I have just changed coil pack. After replacing leads, plenum, etc. I have a spare vacuum(?) hose. You see it in the picture resting on the coolant hoses in the foreground. What is it? Where should it go?

Sorry Terry, I can't think ..... maybe to the none return valve on the servo vacuum hose  Or to the vacuum reservoir in/around the pollen filter 

Can't you compare with one of the other 5 Omegas you have

Is it the one that`s connected at the rear of plenum

Thanks Andy. Sadly, my other 2.5 is in Enfield. I will look on the 3.2.

Looked under of the 3.2. It joins a hose that disappears into the right hand wheel arch just behind the fuel pipes. Mystery solved.

Thank you all for looking and the good advice given.

I still do not know what it does, but in the morning I shall try to start the engine, unless something else occurs to me.

Goes to the charcoal purge valve canister Terry.

Thanks Rob. I made such a meal of getting the plug leads back from the RHS that I disturbed many hoses, cables, etc. I think I have reconnected all the cables and vacuum hoses, but that one defeated me. Is the other end on the breather box?
