Would just add, check closely that the damage is only vacuum lines I had squirrel damage and eventually ended up costing $2500 including my $500 deductible, replaced wiring harnesses and vacuum lines under dash and engine compartment. Good Luck!! Insurance covered it be sure and check..

I hate squirrels to. Three months after I purchased my truck. I went to start one morning just cranked no start. I looked under hood could not see anything. Well being only 3 months old I called dealer, they came and towed to shop. Next day I was told that squirrels chewed on wire harness and Was not a warranty issue. So 500.00 dollars later truck ran great. From that day till present I must of shot about 400 to 500 squirrels and still shooting!!!!!!!!!!

I can't help with the vacuum diagrams, but if you need help with the squirrels I have a spare cat I can mail to you.
If you want, I can even put air holes in the box.

Brings back younger days!
I have eaten a lot of squirrel when I was younger, was always taught if you shoot it then you eat it. Us kids use to fight over the brains...boy not sure I would do that now..LOL

To the OP check your airbox too. that front cover makes an excellent home for them and they like to pack it full of leaves and chew the element up.
