It's for the pcv valve. It"s causing a large vacuum leak, probably why your idle is jumping up and down.

A new PCV valve costs $6 and takes all of 15 seconds to install...I'm poor and I even had the money for a new one.

Even for like 10 bucks you can go to the parts store and buy a big silicone hose kit. That way when you(if) break more vacuum lines you are good to go.

Hey punk, YOU read the post. "THE CONNECTION that goes to this line has broken off...". He either means the nipple on one end of the line or the cheap plastic PCV on the other end (my logical guess) but not the hose.

Pay attention before you feebly try to make someone else look like a dumbass and end up turning the tables on yourself.

i definatley would get that fixed though, yes potential damage to you engine could be caused by not having the pcv valve hooked up...just a thought..
