Today while going on freeway white smoke started pouring from from underhood. Pulled over and found some dohikie that's sliced into heater inlet hose disintegrated. It has 2 thin vacuum lines or coolant lines (I dunno) leading to it and 2 wire connector. Whazzat? The car is 1990 CVLX with heated windshield.

you can replace this with anything that will make the jump between the hoses (pipe, flush T, etc) for a quick get-going fix. Jumper the wires together and hook the vacuum lines to each other and it's effectively bypassed. Plugging the vacuum lines might work as well, but I'm not sure. It may loop back to something involving the floor/defrost vents.
