Broke a vac line or?
I was messing around trying to get my */c belt off and I bumped (and broke) a little hard plastic line that comes out of the engine under the */c and goes under the alternator and around the back of the engine. I'm not exactly sure where it ends up or what its for. What should I do to fix it? Think some type of adheasive (RTV?) or shrink tube around the outside would be enough or do I need to try and replace the whole line?

Allmachtige did this not too long ago, and replaced/repaired it. Do a search on it.
NM, I'll do the hard part for you:

The line looked like a pain to replace because of where it ran - I still don't know where it ends up. I found that fish tank air hose was a perfect fit over the line and with a little RTV evety thing is good now.
