Hej!

I started searching for HBV after i found a free vacuum tube. Theoretically it should go to the HBV. this one:


After few hours of searching and taking off different pieces, i found this picture on the forum (Thanks "Tick Tock" for the picture):


I started to follow the water tubes i found this on my Omega:

here goes the tube from inside of the car:

behind of engine:



I want to mention that my car has engine warming for the cold winter, and i think is the type what is warming the coolant and recirculating.

Actual questions:
1. what should be the problems with the tube free?
2. what i can do ?
3. what is that?

Thanks! abd sorry for my english.

Being an early Omega, does yours have Air Conditioning? Non A/C cars do not have a HBV.

The electric pump under the coolant bottle is part of the winter heating pack.

I have A/C, and is working, at least in the summer was working

Got to be honest, doesn't look like there is an HBV there...

i was looking for few hours for that and i didn't found anything in the engine compartment to resemble to the HBV from pictures.
What should i do with the free vacuum tube? leave it as it is?

I was working around the coil pack and i was thinking that i pulled out from somewhere. In the range of tube, i don't find anything.

should i do something with that free vacuum tube?

Sorry, I cant see a free vac pipe in your pics. If it comes out of bulkhead, block it for now.
