Help! Need pics of Air Pump Instal. 89GXL

For my 89GXL. Im just got done putting everything back together including working 6th ports and VDI but I need the airpump to activate them. Otherwise Im going to have a bunch of holes everywere coming out of the ACV.
I also dont know what the bolt looks like that I need to slide the pump in .
I also think thiers a spacer or something that goes into that bolt but dont know.
I need some pics of the tubing as well. I have a filter on the top of the air pump. Dont know why. I forgot all about how this thing was setup when it was on. hehe

turn the airpump by hand. one pipe should suck air and the other should blow air. put the filter you mentioned on the pipe that sucks, probably already on that one. you should have a hose that goes on the other one and into the acv.

i think the bolt for it was a long one, kinda like the alternator bolt, and yeah the spacer went on it.

i think the vac lines from the acv went to the 5th and 6th ports, its been a while since i've done it though so i cant say i'm a 100% sure... better check in a manual on that one

by the time you read this you'll probably already have gotten it back together though.

Here is a pic of mine but don't think it will be of much help. I don't have a filter on my air pump hose not really sure how much it helps. Is the filter required? or can I just have the hose there like I do now?

oh I see. Yeah I have a small hose for the side that sucks air out into the ACV. THier really close. And I have a filter on top of the air pump because I dont have the ribbed intake duct. You know that one with the two holes in it for vacum. I dont exactly know what they do.

Can someone tell me what the effects will be if I plug the Bac hose that original went to that ribbed duct???
I dont have A/C anymore.

OOps I Mean the top part were the filter is originaly went to the filter box to bring filtered air in. The little filter breather just looks better and gets rid of cluter. I recomend it but it might be a little louder. Not sure though. I havent started my car yet.

SO one of the hoses from the ribbed duct goes to the spider diagram feeding connecting the oil metering lines. The other goes to the back. I have both plugged. Is this ok with a working ACV system?
