bucking

On my wifes 95 f150 5.0 e40d at about 40-45 runs rough, bucks and pops. Code 311 is the only code. Checked plug wires and cap and rotor, seem ok, was new about 1 year ago. Also on pass. side behind pcv valve have something with a small white hose broken off (what is this?) Any other ideas?

That's likely the cause of your bucking problem. The vacuum hose attaches to a diverter valve that is part of the air injection system, and any leaks in this system upstream of the O2 sensor results in extremely lean engine operation.

Do you know what that little line is for where it ties back in?
