Title: What Connects here please?
Post by: MarkG on 28 February 2008, 14:52:04

I have been changing my plugs and HT leads today - a bitch of a job! All plugs and leads are now in and I am re-fitting everything. Plenum is still off. At the rear is a shiney cylinder with an outlet sticking up - I think it might be the fuel pressure regulator. Unfortunately I can't remember what fits to this vertical outlet. There is a pipe which might be it but the bore is too big. This pipe swings down verically towards the gearbox on the drivers side but I cannot see where it goes. Is this the correct pipe - have I lost a reducer or something? If it is not the correct pipe - where does it fit?

I have kept the vacuum pipes which fit into the plenum cover seperate so it is not one of those.

Thanks for your help

Mark

The large pipe at the rear is I suspect the auto gearbox vent and should not connect to anything.

The pipe that connects to the fuel pressure regulator comes from a T which is part of the large pipe that feeds the idle control valve on the right hand side of the plenum.....it normlay runs across the top of the plug leads and has a little loop on the end that connects to the reg.

On the ICV there is a hose which has a smaller diameter hose off it which has an arch at the end, sounds like that one to me.
