identifying vacuum lines
identifying vacuum lines
need help putting back vacuum lines on the motor. heres a picture of the lines i need help on. i already checked the fsm, it didn't help me much because it was an online fsm.
Your right. You cannot from the FSM or any other book determine what each of those lines go to.
Swell picture though.
Tell me this. is that line closest to the turbo gasket going to the Twin Scroll Actuator on the turbo?????

Yep. Last time I looked the FPR was on the aft end of the secondary fuel rail.
Uh, what FIRST LINE?????
One of the three hose with the white marks on it, I assumed is off it's nipple. I mentioned this in one of the above posts. The line that looks cleaned and darker is the one I mention,. I assume it is just laying there and not connected to anything. It should go to the bare nipple just this side of the camera.
The FPR solenoid is the orange one. Just blow thru the line I called the FPR line and the air should exit one of the hose connected to the FPR solenoid.
That's how you find out what goes where. Just find where it came from and the rest comes readily.
First line?????
In fact I'd double check what I said above. I'm more or less a disinterested party. Ain't my car.

Is that a line just behind and to the right of the one I called FPR???????? That must be what your talking about. Oh well. I'll look again in the moring if that is the case.
Like I said, all it takes to figure out what each of those lines does, is simply blow into the metal line. In most all cases the air you blow will exit at one of the solenoids on the left side of the engine. If you know where it came from, logic will lead you to the other end.
I'll look again tomorrow if required.

No.
You need some more vacuum lines and....................wait til the morning and maybe I can make it more cleara. Maybe.
Tell me this. Those vacuum lines that are headed toward the top of the picture. Are they connected to anything??? They should be connected to another array of pipes that lead to the ACV on the right side of the engine.
And answer me this. The vacuum line that is darker in color. Is it connected to anything???? At it's bottom??? It seems to be just laying there not connected to anything.

There should be another set of HARD LINES as pictured in the attached jpg. Does your engine have these????
SOME of the lines in YOUR picture attach to the HARD LINES in my jpg.
I can't tell from your picute is these lines are there or not on your engine.
Do you need a jpg of the ACV????? So you know where three of the lines in YOUR picture go?

yes, thank you! i've got it all sort out now. But it doesn't end there, i just found another line thats near the primary injectors and i don't have a clue where it connects to and this one too the on the black thingy

The black thing they call a Spider. Four nipples should have lines going to the top of the oil injectors.
The single large nipple on it goes to the back of the throttle body. There should be FOUR and mabe just THREE nipples back there, one above the other. The largest of those goes to the black spider. Vacuum Spider.

About the other one. The picture and location don't ring a bell.
IF that nipple is b/t two oil injector nipples on the intake manifold, then that is the fuel injector air bleeds nipple. It also goes to the back of the throttle body to one of the four nipples back there one above the other. ANY nipple back there BUT the lower one will do. NEVER the bottom nipple.

no, those aren't the lines i'm talking about but thanks for the info. anyways the spider thingy is near the oil filler neck it's not the one at the injectors. and the other one is part of the HARD LINES that we were talking about just that i don't have any more nipples to plug that too.
Oh, the Purge valve and the supply line to the FPR's SOLENOID.
On the intake manifold you'll see a nipple that is SLANTED aftwards. That nipple feeds the nipple near the Primary injectors. It goes in to the pipe in your picture then on to the FPR solenoid. The one with a Orange plug on it. Then it leaves the FPR solenoid and goes to the nipple in the JPG where I wrote FPR.
I'll let someone else describe where the Purge lines go.
