Been searching everywhere, but where does the other hard line connected to the Oil inlet pipe connect to on both ends ? Found only one post with anything and the guy said he just capped it off ? Cant really see anything in the FSm

i think you must be mistaken. the rest of the lines connected to that rats nest mess are for fuel and vacuum.

Well, Purge shouldn't have been typed. Crankcase ventalation is what it is. Has NOTHING to do with the bypass valve.

It's just as shown in the second jpg. At the bottom of EVERY oil fill tube is a fairly large nipple on it's aft side. That nipple gets tied to the charcoal canister AND the hardline going to the turboinlet duct.

The end of the line will have a checkvalve on it that gets plugged into the back of the turbo inlet duct.

There might be a better picture of it somewhere. The first jpg kinda shows it heading to the Purge valve. Not so.

EDIT: Seems it's like the second jpg attached. Couple of rubber hose involved at each end of that hard line.

It seems the FSM has conflicting pictures. The jpg attached shows a different routing. This looks more like the real deal. I'll take a look at a car later today or tomorrow or sometime.

But basically it's crank case ventalation.

My car looks like the VERY last jpg I attached.

Remember, there is a hose attached to each end of that hard line so it can go where the jpg shows it going.

your the man (think you could send me the pdf page )

lol but still I have no valve or check valve on the intake where I can plug one end into and no switch solenoid, but I can plug one end into the oil neck plug.

That jpg was misleading. You need to enlarge the jpg and you'll see the line does not go to the Switching solenoid. It passes nearby and ends up at the charcoal canister. See attached jpgs.

Personally, I'd do nothing. Leave the hard line as is. Don't put a line on the nipple at the filler neck. I doubt anything bad will show up. No dribbling out the nipple etc. It'll just be open to atmosphere. No big deal in my humble opinion.

Oh. Page F2-7 of the series five FSM. Series four the same deal but not shown as good in the series four FSM.
