Vacuum line where’s it supposed to go?
« on: December 13, 2008, 03:11:06 pm »
ive just noticed the vacuum line from the tb is just hanging off. Where’s it supposed to go? ive got the 1 to the ecu and the fuel regulator coming off the large pipe from the manifold.
thanks

is it the ones at the front of the TB when fitted to the car?

The brass coloured pipe? if so i think that goes to the boost return system, i have mine blocked off as i have my boost return removed.

its the small elbow on the front. theres a small pipe fitted (same size as the ecu and fuel regular lines)  but its just hanging down the bk and hissing.

it goes to the little flying saucer thing if i remember correctly which clips to the side of the airbox.  2rubber pipes about 40mm long on each end with a bit of pipe the same as the ecu one inbetween.
