I pulled the 12A out of the car yesterday, along with all the electrical and tranny and such to perform a swap to a non-rotary vehicle, but had some curiousity about the solenoids on the opposite side of the intake manifold.

These are the vacuum control solenoid, switching solenoid, shutter solenoid, relief solenoid, and air conditioning solenoid (according to 1981_emissions_check_guide.pdf ).

I'm trying to simplify the motor, and am not sure what these are for, if I can get rid of them, or where to rewire them.

TIA for any help or any direction on where to go.

 

Those are all emissions-related, so you can ditch 'em.
