With the air filter as dirty as you stated its a good possibility the maf is dirty too. be extremely careful cleaning the MAF. Do not break the wires or you will be buying a new MAF.

RE: hesitation in 2000 blazer

The vac resovoir is right in back of the abs assemb in the fender. If you look down behind the abs assemb you will see a nipple coming out, that is where you have to plug it in.

ORIGINAL: 01XtremeLT1

Thanks for the reply to his question. I was researching all day yesterday and today trying to find out what a vacuum hose was that went to the motor with a check valve and a tee as you described here. I have tried looking for the reservior from the engine compartment but the short hose would be only long enough to hit the fender area.. approx 4" long. I guess its time to remove a fender and connect her up. This will now finish my LT1 installation.

Thanks again!

No need to take the fender off.

Stand along side the Drivers side fender, look down at the ABS system Look at the bolt that mounts it to the car on the Right hand side of the ABS. directly under that is the nipple.. you do have to reach back to the fender though. I just replaced that dried up hose Sunday. It's done blind though all feel.
