Title: mfa mpg not reading
Post by: dodgyracer on 13 August 2006, 21:49
hiya guys, my mfa mpg isnt reading due to the fact someone has removed the vacum hose completely out of the car, could some one explain where this is plummed into the engine? cheers

It runs to a feed off the chunky brake servo pipe :)

It connects to the pipe that comes of the right hand side of the throttle body.

it has a yellow thingy in the pipe. you can just see the vacuum pipe (opaque looking) going from the yellow thing back towards the instrument cluster.

seen here on pic:
