It supplies vacuum to the servo to make it work, - gives brake assistance.

im sure its something to do with timing and how carb works wiith the engine, the pierburg needs it for something, i had a weber and the timing had to be different so now i have a pierburg again i have to block off that vacume pipe until the timing is done again or els my engine wont drop below 2300 revs.... i dont know exactly what it does tho
