If the line heads towards or has anything to do with the vacuum accumulator in the fenderwell it WILL affect the HVAC. Any vacuum loss will probably affect that - meaning you switch from floor to mix or vent & it stays with both. Switching to defrost or defrost & floor heat will activate the A/C pump so it dries the air for the defrost & lessoning condensation on the inside of the windshield.

Ahhhhh cause of now everytime i turn my ac or heater it only blows from the vents..Turning the selector for the vents or defrorst doesnt work,,When i got this blazer 2 yrs ago it only had 74000 miles on it and the selector didnt work..Only blows thro the vents and i find it hard to believe that the blend door actuator went out so quick..but i could be wrong..Thtas why i was asking bout that vacuum line..Thanx Rottidog for the info

ok so i spent almost an hour trying to find where the hose goes to but i cant find anything,,no nipple..nada..I got tired looking...I looked right by the intake driver side,,by the radiator hose on top even moved it to the side but nothing..even felt around by the dist on the back..nothing..Does anybody have or can take pic exactly where the hose goes hooked up to..idnt know this could be that much pain in da butt..even looked on the passenenger side..nada

It goes to the black plastic vacuum source connector on top of the PCV valve. That's where the HVAC system gets its vacuum, and why the HVAC doors don't work. It's in the driver side rocker arm cover. Take the black plastic air intake tube off of the throttle body, (one black plastic wing nut). You'll see it. It's directly under the air intake tube. If you need a picture, let me know, I'll take a picture and post it.

Locate the driver side (bank 1) valve cover. On the top and near the back will be the PCV valve. Follow the PCV line to where it meets the intake manifold. The nipple where that vacuum line connects will be on the same plastic fitting that the PCV line connects.

The PCV valve should be the part that is stuck down into the rubber grommet in the valve cover. Here is a view of the actual part in question as visible from the front of the truck with the intake duct work removed from the throttle body & intake filter box:

1-PCV valve itself
2-PCV line
3-Intake Port Adapter/Fitting
4-Vacuum line to check valve then to the vacuum reservoir, HVAC, & 4wd.

Mine is just an elbow..it doesnt look at all like #3..But the Intake port adapter/fitting is built in the adapter..right..I was looking at the right place..I guess maybe somebody took off or broke the adapter,,

How about you take a pic & post it for us to see what's what? A pic or 2 like Kyle (swartlkk) posted with the intake etc removed.
That should help.
