Vacuum problems

Hi
Does anyone know where the vacuum hoses on solenoid B goes?

I get that one side goes to the ACV, but that is removed on my car so that end is plugged, but is there anything connected to the other side of the solenoid?

Study the vacuum line diagram, it's all there. If you're really stumped, take a picture of what you're trying to figure out and post up.

I have. If you look at the pink line from solenoid B. On side goes to the ACV. that is removed on my car so that side is blocked, but the other side is open and i cant see on the diagram where that vacuum line goes?

It tee's into the hard pipe that joins to solenoid C and the UIM, you should be able to make it out in the diagram. This JDM specific diagram may be clearer for you:

If your ACV is removed the Relief solenoid (solenoid B) does nothing. You can just remove it.

"Relief air" is airpump air that's not used and is vented back to the airbox. Switching solenoid is also airpump/ACV related and is no longer needed.
