Brake booster hose and charcoal canister hose...
Ok... just two things I want to find out as soon as possible.
First, where in the hell does the hose from the charcoal canister to the engine block plug in?
In the FSM/Haynes/various diagrams, it apparently plugs into a nipple near the oil filler... I can't find ANYTHING that looks like that. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?
Also, the hose that goes into the LIM from the brake booster is two hoses connected by a check valve, right? I can't seem to find the check valve or one of the hose peices... since just the one peice isn't nearly long enough to reach the nipple...
I know those valves cost a fortune from Mazda (well, 32 bucks), but I could have sworn someone said you could get them cheaper than that...

I believe the check valve is inside the hose. I have a friend that threw the hose away and replaced it with a regular rubber hose because he didn't know there was a valve in it. So if I remember correctly, you won't see the valve cause its in the hose.

I'm not certain, but if i'm correct, a hose starts at the gas tank vent, goes to the charcoal canister, then to the nipple just behind the oil fill neck... not sure if thats even right.

Mine has a visible plastic check valve near the booster... maybe its not the original hose though.

I think I found the nipple for the charcoal canister, BUT, I can't see it because of the wiring harness, and there's no way I could get to it without taking half my longblock apart... crap...
So, the vacuum hose that goes to the brake booster nipple isn't a two-peice hose? Because my hose is waaaay too short.
It's basically an S-shaped hose that's about 6 inches long (if it was streched), right? If it was 2-3 inches longer it would reach just fine...
