The rats nest.. A Tail of breaking stuff. help

While pulling of my manifold today i ended up cracking 2 nipples off and breaking a check valve. It seems as though mazda decided to weld the ******* vaccum hoses onto the nipples .. hehe..

Anyhow i need some help with figuring out witch parts to buy so i can get this **** back on the road. take a look at these pics and lemme know witch ones i need, and for you guys that went to Non-Seq, if you wanna sell me yours that would be great!!

The heat turned that rubber into stone and made every plastic piece brittle as hell! Replace hoses with silicone as you can.

The "lower" solenoid in the big picture from your site is the purge control solenoid. The "upper" solenoid is difficult to make out which it is. From left to right, the lower solenoid rack contains the double throttle control, then the charge control, then the turbo control, then the EGR control, then "switch" which regulates one of the air pump connections, the releif 1 control (also air pump related), and finally the fuel pressure regulator control.

Does that "upper"solenoid have a check valve connected to it? If so, it should be the double throttle control.

Hope this helped any...

ok if your looking at the rack of soleniods from the driver side front fender ( going left to right ) its the one furthest from the fire wall closets to the airpump ( the one on the far left ). check out that link i posted. i circled ( on the vaccum diagram chart ) what i needed.

K is the purge control valve i guess.. The other one im not sure of.

Then the upper one is indeed the double throttle control.

Do you need part numbers?

OK, I have the double throttle listed as 1480-13-240A, which is specifically called a "Valve, 3 way".

I'm having a bit of trouble locating the purge control... wait a bit?

Hey guys, aren't all of the solenoids in the rack the same exact thing?? I know some have little filters on them, but those are removable.

Anyway, I can send you the one of the ones I have, hell, I'll send you 2 of em, I'm not sure if they are any good because they got wet when my house was flooded, but you can give it a shot. PM me an addy and I will figure out how much for shipping, I'm in OKlahoma.

I don't have the purge control, well I do, but I'm still using it on my car

OK, Mazda calls the solinoid 3-way valves, but they are just the regular solinoids on the racks.

yes.

but any of the solinoids will work, you will just have to pop off the little filters, or so I think
