97 Cobra vacuum help please!
I have been dealing with this for months. I have searched multiply forums and can't find one with the appropriate answer or an answer at all. I have a 1997 Cobra everything pretty much stock. The vacuum from the EVAP purge valve is not plugged in and I smell gasoline in the car with the heat/air on. I am not sure what the PO did and want to make sure it's nice a tidy and correctly routed. I have seen a diagram but that doesn't seam to help me. Can somebody please help me with pictures or something that can help me with the vacuum routing. The car is unsafe as I get a headache after driving too long. THanks!!!

I've got pictures somewhere that could assist with this somewhere.
But the evap hose comes in to the engine bay through the inner fender on the passenger side where your fuel lines come in. Also on that side is some AC stuff, the engine harness connector block thing, and some other stuff.
There should be a vacuum senor solenoid thingy on your engine harness that should have that evap canister hose hooked to it.
Like I said. I have or can take pics in the near future. (however I make no promises, as I am pretty busy the next couple days)

I see the line from the canister - to the solenoid - to the purge sensor- and then nothing is attached to this. Where exactly does this connect to? Here is a picture of my setup. Not sure if anything else there is messed up or hooked up wrong.

Goes To a port on the manifold, somewhere theres an open port or a hose coming off the manifold that needs to attach to that sensor. Judging by the real dirty engine bay and all of a sudden a right white new vacum splice id bet someone was messing with the vacum lines.

I'm having the same problem but going the other direction with the blk/w red stipe vacuum hose. Does the Blk/w red stripe run into the fender then along side the fuel line? I'm replacing these lines because their dry rotting.....
