vacuum lines
« on: 02 August 2014, 11:16 »
I'm starting to bit by bit change my vac lines.  I have 4mm silicon tubing 6m just in case so I've got some spare.  I want to know is there a diagram/guide of where exactly all the lines are?  Presume I can literally just replace or is there more to it?  Oh yeah Golf GTI Mkiv 1.8 turbo AGU engine.

Ta in advance.

You have 2 take off on your inlet mani, one goes to the fuel pressure regulator, the other to your DV

I've done those two pipes, bypassing the metal one, but it's the other ones I was looking for?

There aren't any more on the AGU as far as I know, unless you T off for a boost gauge. You could replace the actuator pipe I spose but the standard one has a heat resistant sleeve on it

Well that explains that then.  I thought I was going nuts.
