Normally vacuum is always applied threw the VSV.

VSV's go bad. You can just by-pass it, and hook vacuum straight to the coolant valve.

do you have a pic or diagram of how to bypass the VSV I'm not even sure what to look for, as well i was wondering about the new tstat I got, someone said to remove the little "pin" that jigles and make a bigger hole...should I do this?

just wondering as well if this looks ok...the parst store said they are the same but it looks a little different.

just to add to this post can someone tell me what this piece of rubber tube is and should it be connected anywhere...it is attached to the firewall on the passanger side

Well I don't think it is the VSV valve...I noticed that it does open when the car is started...
