FPR + SCV vaccum / which oil catch can

[Neejay]

What I think:1 = FPR vaccum2 = intake manifold source3 = to SCV

That's what I came up with from looking at the FSM, but Im not 100% sure...

i was in the process of putting mine back together and thats how i routed mine but im not sure if its running ok cause i need a new alternator before i put it back together. i should be doing this soon and i will tell you how it is...otherwise just put it together and leave hoses long and have vacuum caps handy to cap and reroute stuff if you have to go about the trial and error process

did it work

I gotta wait until I get a knock sensor in the mail + warmer weather. Will probably be next Monday/Tuesday before I can try it out. I'll let you know though.

EDIT: A lot of people were saying to take them out, but after a ****load of research, I've gotten like a 50/50 response in terms of good and bad results. Im just going to keep them in for now and just clean the intake runners.

I got the car put back together and running, but I can't drive it because I can't get the driver's side steering rack bushing in. lol...

hopefully I can get that in today and I'll update you.

did it work

Ok, after further research of how solenoids work, #1 on that diagram got capped off (filled in + packed with rtv). #2 = vaccum source, and #3 = SCV. FPR got its own vaccum source via the fitting next to the brake booster source. Seems to be working just fine.

This is assuming you'd only have a FPR vaccum hose, and still have the SCV system.
