Title: vacuum hose location on digifant?
Post by: jaybv6 on 10 February 2007, 19:59

Getting my head back on and I can't quite remember where some of the vacuum hoses go.  Anyone got a few pics of a Digi engine back especially of the throttle body vacuum hoses and where they go?  Cheers.

These the ones on the throttle body, or the ones on the airbox?

My Digipanties has a little diagram on the top of the smal panel which shows the arrangement?
Your sticker missing? Mind you if it's the hoses on the air box it will run fine without them.

It's the throttle body.  I'm replacing the airbox with a custom made induction system.  I have no sticker showing the vacuum hose arrangment anywhere in the engine bay.

Cheers for that. The second pic is the best.  Thanks again.

the 2nd pic isnt quite right, the right side of the 'T' runs to the t'body as shown, and the bit thats shown as disconnected should run to the vac lead to Fuel Pressure Regulator which is shown to be connected to the other side of the T.  The remaining side of the T runs to the airbox :)

Cheers John ;)

I'm replacing all the vacuum hosing with new stuff and will be omitting the t piece as I'm having a one of induction system fitted (designing it myself).

cool, well all you need is a vacuum hose from the rearmost connection on the t-body straight to the FPR :)
The other 2 connections (theres another on the back of the tbody) should just be blanked off.
