So I'm replacing my stock intake with a sport air filter, gonna put proper tubing aswell but I came across a vacuumline of which I don't know the purpose of, anyone here able to tell me what it's for? It's the line that's connected between the carter and air intake that goes to the throttle body.
Thanks in advance

Welcome!


Can you mark that pipe/hose on the photo please? which year is the car and is it 903cc engine?

Hi there!

Forgot to do that yeah, here you go!
It's a 2000 Fiat Panda 900I.E. Young with the 899cc spi engine

What sort of filter you are upgrading to?
I use K&N in my 899 and it's just fine
I would not mess with a cone

Well it's a cone got it from a mate but it's a bit too big so I'll have to play around with reduction tubes :/ need to figure out the whole carter situation aswell..

Good luck with it... won't achieve any more than a good K&N filter
Keep us updated

Yeah it won't do anything performancewise but atleast it'll be a bit more responsive and we can have a bit of a laugh in our local cargroup, most mods on the car are just to have some fun or have a bit of a laugh every once in a while

hey there, its not a vacuum line.. just a breather. im pretty sure that one should not pull a vacuum.

Hey, yeah I asked around on a couple of places and they said it's not really that bad if I should ditch that line and go for a catchcan between the carter and the air intake aswell
