Vacuum Hoses On The Distributor?

[Mister2]

hi guys. i just got my dizzy cap in and noticed that it looked a little different than my current one. there were two little plastic pieces sticking out from it that looks like hoses would be connected to it. when i looked at the one i have now, the pieces were removed. any idea what these are for or if they are important?

These are breather holes. They have been present on both my dizzy caps. They face downwards so then water can't get into the cap.

Just leave them alone they dont attatch to anything (no other hoses etc...)

And I would say they are important ;)
