vacuum line to where?
I have a underhood line free at one end and goes into a box under the brake booster. Once upon a time the car had cruise control but not any longer. Any Ideas? Should I connect to a vacuum source? Also, It's not for the headlights. Almost forgot,1980 orginally auto but now 4-speed.

There's also a vacuum lockup switch for the tranny , it could have been a box or a cylinder looking thing. I called it a MAP sensor but it might be referred to as something else.
I had an 80 and I seem to remember putting a toggle switch on it so I could keep it from going into lockup around town.

The line must have been to the cruise control which was abandoned after the conversion to a 4-speed. The cruise unit has four vacuum lines going to to it which are now gone.
