Default Chasing the P1136 code

It had rotted and come off of the manifold. I did a bunch of things (MAF, O2 sensor, purge valve) before I noticed the missing hose. After 21 years of owning the car, I knew that those parts were original, so I felt replacing them wasn't a bad idea, even if they weren't the cause of the problem.

I am having this exact code error so I’ll make sure to check that exact vacuum hose. It’s still going to be an issue for many more years for other people.
