I am at the end of the job right now and need help.


There are four vacume hoses that come offf the rats nest that are on top of each other facing the car on the left side. They go into the manafold that mounts the plenem. And there are only three on that side.

In the diagram the hose colors are yellow green yellow green and the end that Im not sure why there is only three nipples to connect four lines is circled in red.


Please help

 

Its yhe line on the top in yellow that I need help with.

I hope you can pick up what Im putin down

 

You are probably missing the top one, which is for the EGR system. Not all FDs came with an EGR - if you run a quick search you could probably find out exactly which ones did. Mine has one, and the vac diagram shows it.

If you have an EGR valve, then you must have a different version of the Lower intake manifold and as a result there is not a fourth pass-thru hose. If you have the EGR solenoid and EGR valve, then just run a longer line directly from the rack to the EGR valve.

If you don't have the EGR valve, then you don't need the EGR solenoid or either the lines for it (in yellow).

I thimk I have the solenoid but not a nipple on the manafold or a erg valve.

Do I cap it off? And If so where?

 

Does anybody know why I would have the egr solenoid and no egr valve or nipple to plug into the manafold?

Do I just cap it off?

 

The solenoid is in the rack but No valve and no nipple on the manafold.

How do I cap this off, if thats what I do?

Clean up your pm's. This site is so slow.

 

was the EGR blocked off?

 

When I bought the car someone attempted the vac job already. But wasnt done right.

And I dont have a egr valve at all.

 

so there's a blockoff plate where the egr was ?

 

Maybe. But Im not sure. I just didint see the valve but didnt notice a block off plate. I know the manafold does not have the nipple for the hose.

What do you think I should do?
