I scoured my haynes manual and came up with nothing, I'm hoping someone will make quick work of this.

on the vac diagram, it shows only one line coming out of here, not three



I'm hoping I didn't lose whatever it was I took off here, and I thought I was good about setting the little things aside




I think my vac lines were screwed up before I even touched them and the haynes has been a big help so far, but these two things were a bit too tricky for me, thanks for any feedback I get.


Edit: If any more pics are needed, let me know

 

Top pic is the Cold start assist piece. Its supposed to inject some crap in the engien for helping it start when its really cold out. You can chuck it, chances are it doesn't work (Mazda had a TSB about removal actually...) But hey, if it floats you boat keep it there, I'm unsure whether having the vac nipple open on it will cause a vac leak or not however....

The bottom pic is for the EGR, should have a tube running to the cat.

 

top pic- i unbolted that cold start assist long ago haha, I'll cap them off to be safe.
bottom pic- split air pipe, awesome

 

What about the similar looking hole below the split air pipe? Ssomething is attached in the pic, I've got nothing there though..... another block off plate then, yea?

 

cant be a blockoff plate, its got a pipe/tube coming off the center of it and runs to something....

 

the split air pipe comes off there and provides fresh air to the cat. if you have a stock exhaust i would recommend putting it back on.

 

weeeeelllll, i just bought a block off plate for it....

no stock exhaust.

 

no, but do you have a catylitic conveter?

 

that similar hole is for the turbo oil line

 

.

 

fixed.

 

ah, i thought it was an oil line, i forgot that was a water jacket

 

ahhhh ha, yea i forgot i re-route that... thnaks for the clarification.
