Vacuum thingy

Hello all, it's been a while...Must be because my truck has been running well. Until now, lol.

I am stripping the head as I have bubbling in the expansion tank again. It was a cracked head 5 years ago.

Well, I started the strip down this morning and accidently fractured a plastic pipe on the vacuum system. See pictures. Please can anyone tell what it is called? Are they expensive?

I was thinking a blob of araldite or the like would fix it okay, but if it's pennies to buy a new one I will just get one...

I forgot to say... It's a 53 plate classic.

Thanks all

The VGT solenoid to the turbo actuator. Don't bother with a cheap one , go gen Mitzy, the cheap jobs are simply shite, i've gone though 3 in 12 months, even Milners single solenoids aren't gen and mine has never worked properly, the vent cap on the back leaks , another member has had the same issue recently, been meaning to try a quick fix with a dod of something on the steel pipe to seal it, no got round to it yet though.


If it's not broken yet, you're not trying hard enough.
