What do you guys make of this?
 

Please take a look at this:

That vacuum line connects 2 vacuum points on the intake manifold to
each other. Here's another shot where you can see the whole vacuum
line:

I don't see the point in that line. Should I be able to just plug up
each vacuum fitting on the manifold and get rid of that line, or is it
actually trying to perform some kind of useful function? Thank you.

If both ends of the hose are connected to the manifold, like it looks like
it is, then you can cap them both off and get rid of the hose, its not doing
anything useful. Just another place to develop a leak.

Nice Jeep BTW.

Thank you. That's what I suspected. The rear connection came loose
today and my idle got rough... I'll cap both ends off and be done
with it.

Thank you. :-) I'm enjoying it already. Took it offroad today and
got some pretty good pictures that I'll try to post tomorrow night.

The seller had an aquarium, but no rubber caps:
