Anyone know what these give vacuum to my cruise and hvac work and my engine doesn’t run rough but one of the lines is broke and one capped off. Just trying to get an idea if I can get rid of them or not.

The red line should be the source of vacuum from the intake manifold to the reservoir. No, you cannot remove the lines if the emissions and air injection systems are still there. Is the other end of that red hose capped off at the intake? You said no check engine light so does the light come on during the self test when starting the engine?

That looks like the connector for the power steering pressure switch.

the line isn’t capped but the emissions system has been mostly removed by the previous owner. It does have a check engine light but it runs just fine.

Run a key on engine off test to see what code(s) are there. The engine might not be running as good as you think it is.
