Angry Removing Vacuum Hoses

Need help on removing vacuum hoses. Has anyone done this before? I don't care about emissions, so I need 2 know how many, and which ones I can remove.



P.S. not all hoses are necessary so don't tell me they are. Thank you

You should remove all of them. They will eventually go bad anyway.

I'm a Software Engineer. I usually have the forum up in the background to browse when I'm compiling, testing or waiting for the server to start/stop.

Do the whole job. It sucks, but once you get the whole nest out, it is not too bad. Especially when you have TOM93R1 doing all the work >=)

HAH!

He needs to start his own non-profit organization, the dude is a machine.

Anyway, you should replace them all if you want to eliminate the whole 'leaky hose' problem in the future. You can get rid of a lot of them if you do poor mans non-seq, just check out the simplified vac diagram.

I just did mine, so if you have any questions, fire away.

Ok maybe I am just not seeing the whole picture here but what exactly does that diagram tell you? Because it does not very clearly tell me what to remove and where to route the unused vacuum lines. Maybe someone did a write up and could share?

The diagram shows you what you need to keep.
