Question Connections to what? (Pictures)

Hey everyone, I ran across these unhooked connections, and I can't figure out where they go, can you guys help me? I have a 1989 N/A s5, mostly bone stock, previous owner can't recall what they did to the car, all I know is they blew the previous engine.







suggestions please.

The black hose (from the ACV relief port) goes to a silencer in the right front fender where the water bottle for the washer is. The elec motor is the washer motor. What more can be said?

The large white thang in your picture is not a Mazda part. Get rid of it.

The black hose in the first picture is the same hose as in the second picture.


OOps. Wrong. Same in the second and third pictures. In fact I'm not sure if that hose is coming from the ACV or going to the silencer in the right fender.

Which hose in the first picture? The ones I see are not stock. Take another picture more from the side so we can see better.

so where do i attach that pump to? in the second and third pictures. cause the second and third pictures lead to a bunch of connections under the hood.
and here are some better pictures of that white thingy and pump thingy as well as a tube





and heres the above picture of where they lead to under the hood(pics 2+3 in first post.)




heres another side view of the tube from the first picture in the first post.

Picture 1: I'm not sure. I'll take a look at my motor tonight for you
Picture 2: Just a water drain, fine the way it is
Picture 3: That would be your washer fluid pump. It might not work (mine doesn't). If it does, pull back your inner fender in the drivers wheel well, and you'll be able to see the washer fluid reservior. It goes into the bottom of that.

Your second picture in your last post: The LARGE white canister is a muffler or in your case a Silencer. The Large hose connected to it should connect with another hose and terminate at the ACV's relief nipple.

I'd never seen a White silencer before. I've seen only the black ones.

Your Last picture: It seems to the the outlet hose that should be leading to the split air pipe which in turn leads to the catalytic converter. I'm talking the black hose with the black elec tape over its end.

The series five FSM is free for a download from this site. If you look at the Fuel and Emissons section, page F1-3 you'll see what your wondering about. Key word: SILENCER and ACV. And throw in Spit Air Pipe.
