I am working on my 96 JSPEC install, only the core is JSPEC all the wireing is US SPEC,I am very near with the entire install I just have a few issues with some connections and connectors that I have not figured out.

First I nave a blue connector near the alternator and water pump that I have no idea where it goes I have I have included a pic , I am not sure where it goes, I am guesing this is EGR switch for California and I don't need to worry about it.

I also have a problem with the connection that comes from the oil filler neck, I know one of the connections go to the upper intake manifold and the PCV valve.
The second line that comes from the oil filler neck I am not sure where that goes to, I am going to need some help on that as

I also have another metal pipe next to the oil inlet pipe on the spark plug side of the engine, next to the oil inlet pipe, I am not sure if this is a vacuum or oils line.

i also have a knock sensor from the 96 Jspec donor core engine that I have not figured out where it goes as well

See includes pics

Thanks

dont worry about the blue plug. i think your right about the california egr.

the second nipple on the oil filler neck connects to the hard pipe thats installed with the turbo feed line via banjo bolt. ( the pipe your asking about) it then connects to the plastic intake elbow on the primary turbo inlet.

The knock sensor is installed in the threaded hole above the trailing spark plug in the 1st rotor housing. shown in pic 3. it plugs into the black plug in the bottom right corner of the same picture iirc. if its not that plug its one right around there on the engine harness (if thats what your asking?)

 

If you want you can just remove the PCV stuff and cap the UIM with a rubber/silicone nipple. That PVC stuff was removed in the later years of the FD. My '93 has ran for over 2 years without it being installed.

 

Thanks, let me just get it clear are you saying the second nipple on the oil filler neck is connected to the hard pipe on picture Number 3?

 

Yes. It goes like this.

 

yes. the one in pic 3 just like pictured in the above post.
