Does anyone have a plan or a map of where all the vacuum pipes should go?

HTH ;)

It does indeed, cheers mate, tomorrow night is booked for my garage now lol
-
Wait a mo, doesn't show connection to the fpr?
-
fpr?
-
Sorry, old habits, Fuel Pressure Regulator. There should be a vacuum hose connected to it as well
-
The fuel injectors want a constant differential pressure between the fuel line and the inlet tracts so I think the regulator has a direct line to the inlet manifold.
I had my inlet manifold off a few weeks ago to change the thermostate but I cannot remember where the fpr vacuum pipe connects to :-/
-
I think it is probably the 8mm flexible rubber hose that clips onto the cable tray on the passenger side (the one that stops you getting to the spark plugs).
-
Yes, its the rubber hose that comes from the main feed pipe to the idle control valve....unlike some cars, its not at true manifold vac.
-
Thanks folks, will be out with a torch and a heater tonight lol
-
Sorted! . . . . I think lol. The only ones I ain't sure about is what way round they go on the multi ram vac sensor
-
Does anyone know the proper name for the vac operate valve that has an electronic plug at one end and then a vac feed pipe to it from the back of the engine and the a vac pipe to the diaphragm valve that actually moves the Multiram flap. This isn't working not matter what way round I have the hoses to it so I am assuming that the valave is not working
