Rats Nest Help - Double Throttle Chamber

Arrrhhh, the rats nest, what delightful little invention that is.

I am the confuseded.

See (A) on diagram.

The double throttle line, Runs from the electric solenoid, to a check valve, into a vaccum chamber, then into the brass metal pipes, out and then into that tiny wastegate looking thing on the side of the manifold.

Is the vaccum chamber and check valve needed on this line ? I broke the stupid chamber trying to remove it, and thought, no worries, I have spare...NOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!

The front cuts line is just vaccume hose, not check valve or vaccum chamber. I have no problem leaving the check valve in place, but what happens if I leave the chamber off...


See (B) on diagram

I'm missing the vaccum tubing on both the front cut and my car... Does anyone have this installed ?

See (c) on diagram

Car goes fine without these tubes and different check valve. mine has 2 outlets, not 3 like the one pictured (I assume MT is manual transmission). Anyone know whats going on here ?


Fun, fun and more fun.

Trying to understand what your asking and see if I can answer correctly. You need the check valve to the vacuum chamber or you won't have the vacuum you need when the solenoids operate. Y should be able to remove the dbl. throttle actuator and just plug the one line that went to it, and place a cover plate and seal it over the area the shaft came out.

You can disable the double throttle by simply capping the two vacuum lines (from that solenoid) on both sides of the throttle body. If you do this, you must be careful to never accelerate hard until your engine is fully warmed up.
