need help with wires and fuel line?

cars almost back together but i got a couple of questions.

their are three "fuel" lines, mounted when looking from the front of the car going left to right....

which is the farthest left, middle, right one?

does the fuel feed into the primary or secondary injectors first?

which primary injectory plug goes on the left and right (colors)?

Their is a wire on the transmission hanging on the right side (not one of the three in the harness mounted on the left) where does this line go?

Their is a black and red wire in my harness thats missing a plug, its in the drivers side harness on the right. any clue what this is for?

I think thats about it for now, maybe more questions tomorrow

thanks in advance to anyone who helps me out!



oh lastly, WTF does everyone do with the 5 billion connectors that arent used when going single?

I got your fuel:
The one closest to the middle of the bay is the charcoll can, the middle is the return and the one closest to outside is the feed.

And it usually feeds the primaries first.

If you are talking about from the drivers side corner of the firewall the closest line to the front of the car is the feed. I believe the middle is the cannister and the other is the return. I'm not sure about the return and cannister. The way I could tell is that one doesn't use real fuel line like the other 2 and thats the cannister.

Next, the fuel feeds into the primary injectors first through the fuel pulsation damper.

For the injector clips one should be slightly longer and that goes to the injector closest to the front bumper. It shouldnt matter but you want to get them right. I labeled mine when I took the rail off...


No idea about the transmission wire and the black and red wire missing a plug please take pics and I can help you.

Here's what I did for the connections you no longer use and it turned out fantastic. I cut it all down as close to the thick harness as possible leaving about 1/8 of an inch on each individual wire. Then I cut a small piece of heatshrink for each individual wire and melted it on. Once i did this for a bundle of wires I used electrical tape and very very tightly wrapped the wires against the harness and it looks like nothing was there and the connections wont touch each other and fry out.

Good luck

I checked my tranny and there is 4 plugs that go together. The one your talking about slings over the top and mounts with the rest. If you only have 3 connectors then your missing one.
