Need help with vacuum
 
1 Attachment(s)
Can anyone tell me where the two red arrows go to. I dont have a vacuum fitting on the passenger side of my motor and I dont see a vacuum fitting on the power steering reservoir. Oh and where does the purge line from the charcoal canister go to? After these questions have been answered I'll be done. Thanks in advance.

That vacuum valve is on the power steering pump, not the reservoir.

The other is a metal bracket with the vacuum tube on it mounted near the front driver side of the engine. There's actually a lot of vacuum lines running around over there, so it can be missed if you aren't looking in exactly the right area.

I'll have to take a look at my bay to see where the charcoal lines run.

thanks. I figured out one of them runs to the vacuum fitting on the air box. I've attached another picture, can someone tell me where that line goes to. I dont see any more open fittings on the driver side block. Thanks again.

Purge line from charcoal canister goes to the BVSV on the thermostat housing, should have 2 fittings on it and from the top of it to the left side of your throttle body when looking at it from the drivers fended. This is to keep your combustion temp down after warm up.

Can you post a pic of the line you're talking about on or near the TB? Can't tell for sure which line you mean from that diagram.

sturner 07-22-2011 10:08 PM

thanks. any clue on the second picture?

OK last question I hope. Where does the line from the image run to? For some reason the people who installed the last motor in the car before I got have a line running to a vacuum T and then short line on one side and a really long one on the other. Hopefully after this I'm done. Thanks!

Looking at your picture, I will suggest this is the PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) line, which runs across the cam covers and on to the turbo intake.

I have 7MGE and I'm stumped about this. I have connected everything else and the diagrams and haynes manual say nothing about it.

sturner 07-27-2011 10:10 PM

anyone have an idea?

mirage83 07-27-2011 11:38 PM

That's your heater valve in the picture. I'm not sure about a GE, but in my GTE the top vacuum line goes to a vacuum pipe just behind and to the left of the main valve.

Is this what you are asking about?

As mirage83 posted, that is the heater control valve and the VSV for it. The other vac line goes to the nipple an the back of the intake manifold. At least that is how mine is.

Could you post a picture of the line on the intake manifold? I dont have any more open valves to connect to. SO the small line runs to the vsv under the heater control and then the other line to the manifold correct? Thanks for all the help. I just installed a "new" 7MGE and finally got it running right now I just wanna make sure everything is connected to its right spot.

Just use a T and tap off another vacuum hose if you have no more open ports. My car has it going to a nipple on the back of the manifold facing the firewall.

I knew it, unfortunately that broke off during install. I will just tap into another system as you noted. Thanks for all the help!

This thread's rather confusing and unclear, IMO.... What do you need info on? The charcoal canister?
