What is a gas/fuel ABG line?

I have a big hole in the Gas/Fuel ABG line. It is a vacuum hose that one line from the hose connects to a part on the firewall, i dont know the name of the part. The other line that has the hole in it that goes into the rear valve cove. It sits in the cover almost like a pcv , but it is a hose instead. I called autozone and the do not have any idea what it is. The hose with the hole in ite has a connector on the bottom that is like a pcv. The part # for that hose is Motorcraft EV152 A03. I did a google search for these items and nothing came up. Any help would be appreciated.

Hopr this helps!

Pull the hose off and go to a parts store and buy a new piece of hose they can cut to length for you. Much cheaper than going to the dealer.

I wanted to do that, but it is not a regular vacuum hose. It has a connector on the bottom that is like a PCV end cap.

I don't see any formed fittings on the hose. It appears to be pushed on to a fitting like a heater hose. The other end has a clamp like a heater hose clamp.
Size wise it appears to be 1/2 inch hose. Use a good hose like a piece of heater hose. You said it was leaking vacuum. The engine should run much better.

Looking at your picture.....it looks like it is going from the upper intake manifold.....back toward the firewall.
Is is possible that whatever connector you are talking about is removable?.......
I had this SAME hose get a hole in it......on my '96 3.8L......and I found a replacement at AutoZone......in the "HELP" stuff that they have.....I had to cut it to length.....but it has been working just great for years now.

On mine....this hose goes to the PCV valve...and I think yours does also.....but before it gets there it connects to another connector that splits the line to go to other things as well.
If yours is like mine.....then the hose will come off.......at both ends......and you can get a replacement......you need a 90 degree elbow, which AutoZone had in their "Help" stuff......which is a strange collection of all kinds of odd things.
