[Tigers] trunk plastic tube

[jim]

My car had that small diameter tube coming out of the back trunk wall but wasn’t connected to anything…

The battery vent hose is bigger and exits through the grommet on the trunk floor as in this pic

Jim;

 

 I think that tube is supposed to be connected to the fume vent "harness" for the battery. 

That is how that clear hose is connected on my Tiger.

Hello friends,

 

As I near completion of the removal of the black pitch-like substance with which the FPO coated the floor of the trunk, I had to remove the battery. 

Over the battery, in the upper right corner of the rear wall, I noticed a clear (now yellowed) PVC tube of a small diameter. It came through a very small rubber gasket and seemed like it should be (but wasn't) connected to the little goose neck on the SU fuel pump on the other side of the wall.

 

Can anyone confirm that this is the case? If not, where is it supposed to go.?
