Vacuum leak?
Truck is '97 460, 5spd
My AC is working great but shifts to the defrost setting especially while pulling a load up a hill. I've read on here that this is likely due to a vacuum leak. I found a small white hose near the firewall right up against the passenger side, that appears to have a rotten spot in it I think just from being old. One end of the white hose disappears into a black bundle of other hoses.
Am I on the right track? If so how much digging into this bundle of other hoses is needed to replace the entire white vacuum line?
What else is the vacuum leak going to impact?
thanks.
