How about a vacuum operated 2 speed axle. That might explain the line out of the intake.

Have you taken the fitting out to inspect it?

(Soon to be where my power brake booster taps in.)

With your input and the interweb a wiper motor seems likely. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,289 Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum | | Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,289 | I also think wiper motor. Plug it and drive on.......
