This is the vacuum hose diagram for the Endura engine in the Ford Ka — one of the most common questions from people working on this engine. The diagram shows how to connect the hose from the intake manifold, the canister valve , and the flame trap valve.
Vacuum hose diagram
How the connection works
The connection follows this route:
- A hose from the intake manifold (intake manifold) comes out as a hose for vacuum.
- This hose reaches a T-fitting.
- From the T-fitting, vacuum is distributed to two components:
- the canister valve (fuel vapor control);
- the flame trap valve.
Why this matters
The key point is that all hoses must fit securely with no looseness. Any looseness creates a vacuum leak — and a vacuum leak on the Endura causes the classic symptoms: rough idle, unintended acceleration, and stalling. If your Endura has these symptoms, checking the vacuum hoses and this T-fitting is a great first step.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the Ford Ka Endura vacuum hose connect?
The hose runs from the intake manifold to a T-fitting, which distributes vacuum to the canister valve and the flame trap valve.
My Ka Endura stalls at idle / revs too high. Could it be a vacuum problem?
Yes. A loose hose or connection in this vacuum circuit causes a vacuum leak, leading to rough idle, unintended acceleration, and stalling.
