There is a hose smashed under the throttle body on my 90 4runner, 3vze engine, and i do not know what the electrical component that it connects to is? (see photos) It doesn't pass emissions, and was thinking this could be the cause. Might just cut the hose and replace it so i don't have to pull the whole throttle body and replace the gaskets. But cannot until i know what the hose and electrical switch that it connects to is for? Thanks for checking it out input is much appreciated.

 

Accidentally created two threads on this topic trying to delete this one. as soon as i figure out how...
