    It's the vent tube for the charcoal canister by the gas tank (EVAP). Personally I just cut the tube at the driver's side wheel well and left it open.

        Put a $1.99 napa fuel filter on the end of the cut line...just makes sense.

                Just need to stick it in until you feel it click then the lines should slip off.

                This is the tool you should try - I've heard of people using others and IMHO this one is the easiest tool to use:

                    I bought the x shaped one... works fine.
                    you do need to fiddle with the little rubber boots on the line... they get in the way.

                    Did you find a suitable gromet for this? Im having trouble finding one

                          Were both of those parts already disconnected from their vacuum feeds? The first pic is the EVAP purge valve, the second is your EGR solenoid. Disconnecting EVAP and/or EGR will trigger an SES error code.

                            The egr one only had the wire harness pluged in cuz i deleted the egr years ago.. but the evap i just removed everything off the manifold while i was doing the fuel line mod so now there is just 2 pigtails up there... the fans are confuseing me the most...i never had any lights come on when i deleated my egr

                              Why would you want full manual fans? I'd never allow the ECM or temp switch to NOT be able turn on the fans (unless they are wired to come on when ignition is on) because that sounds like a great way to ruin an engine...one "whoops, forgot to turn my fans on" while sitting in traffic.

                              I have mine set to run the fans when ever the switch is on, in the off position the computer/high temp switch/AC have control.
