OK, after procrastinating for a month or so, I pulled the injectors out of my 87 TII yesterday & just droppped them in the mail to RC Engineering for cleaning. My plan is to remove all the stuff I don't NEED to have on the motor. I plan on removing & blocking off the BAC, ACV & split-air pipe, EGR, sub-zero assist. I have a 91 turbo, so the twin-scroll stuff goes. Actually all the solenoids are going (the only one I'm worried about is the fuel pressure regulator, but RETed told me I could just run vacuum straight to the regulator). I'm trying to plan in my head what still needs vacuum signal routed to it. I'd like to eliminate the spiders while I'm at it, too. I can think of: boost sensor/gauge, wastegate actuator, BOV, FPR, & the vac lines for the OMP. Am I missing something? I marked just about all the lines when I was pulling the upper manifold/TB, but the ACV is staying off. I'm trying to picture in my mind the simplest routing so I can get to everything if need be.

When I pulled averythig off yesterday I was in that mechanic's "zone". You know, the "Ican do this, how hard can it be" mode. Now that I've slept, I'm becoming worried that I may have crippled my noble steed. Like I said, more brave than smart.

Advice, comments?

 

As long as you "tagged" all you pulled so that when installing you know what is what.......the rest should be ok. By the looks of it, you seem to know what's taking place so far.

 

A lot of the stuff I tagged is being pulled. I'm trying to figure out what need to have a vac signal with all the solenoids/ACV/BAC/sub zero start assist pulled. Did I miss anything that needs a vac signal in the list above?
