below that red hose you can see it. sorry i couldnt get a better picture of it. also i know a picture is worth 1000 words, but my only personal computer is on my phone and im not sure how to upload pics from it. (picture is rotated 90 degrees counter clockwise. im not very computer savvy). that "fitting" or "opening" or whatever you want to call it was pushing a lot of air when it ran. like i said, i see no hose that looks like it came off or anything.

You're talking about the nipple where my arrow is pointing to (see attached pic), correct? That looks like the vacuum nipple that is supposed to connect to the brake booster. Without that hose installed between that nipple and the power brake booster, you have no power assist on the brakes! Note also that this hose should have a plastic one-way check valve installed inside of it.
