I know the two fuel ports and the vacuum to the intake manifold... what does that chimney connect to?

It's a just a vent tube. Normally there is a curved rubber hose on the top that just bends down to prevent water from getting inside (part 102355), but it doesn't actually connect to anything per se.Originally Posted by MacinTek

That's kinda what I thought. Mine has the curved hose attached. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss a vacuum connection.
Thanks for the confirmation!

I noticed a bolt sticking out of my WUR; I don't know why it's there, but looks to me like it doesn't belong.
Anybody know why this bolt might be there, or what purpose that location [on the WUR] serves?
Thanks!

That is not the normal point to facilitate k jet black magic. But I wouldn't put it past someone making a modification.

Might have been an attempt to set cold control pressure or overall control pressure. Google “knocking the plug wur” for a description. This method is not as useful means to adjust the DMCs version of the regulator.

I already took out the bolt, but now there's a hole in my WUR...
