Oh man I'm just taking a brake from changing the vacum hoses just about to pull off the solenid rack.
All I have to say is who ever designed the layout for the mess underneath the upper manifold needs a good swift kick to the junk. Man that is some of the most fustrating **** I've had to do for a long time(since I changed the front water house )but I won't care to much as long as everything turns out to be fixed.
sorry just had to rant about something.

 

Just take your time dude, it will work out. When it's all fixed you can take out you fustration on a mustang

 

Haha just had to say something. Waiting till my knee pops back in to place then it's back to the garage to work on it somemore. I have about 35 or so pics from the digital camera to help along with the color coded vac diagram so I should get to mad.

 

If eel for you. Here's a tip on saving the back and knees a little. Jack up the car, and remove the hood (four bolts). You won't believe how nice it is to not have to bend over so far.
All I can say about the rats nest is, why did they use 400ft/lbs of torque on each solenoid rack screw?

 

 

Just to confirm that I am a dumb ***. I tried to hit the edit button to correct a word, and bam! qoute button.
Sorry

 

Don't worry about it. Yeah those screws are a bitch some one has already had mine apart be for and of course on of the back ones was stripped but the rotary gods smiled on me and put the idea of a pencil grinder in my idea wwwwrrrr wwwrrrr out in a jiffy well thats as far as I took it yesterday well I'm off to go check all the soleniods.
