Another quick question
« on: 03 February 2013, 12:11 »
Had my engine apart over the weekend. It's all back together now but I have one vacuum pipe left and I can't find where it goes?



Is is where it comes from



The car starts and runs fine with it disconnected but I still want it plummed in


Cheers

Indeed ECU pipe. If you already have one connected up then it must be old pipe running through the original path.

Do you remember actually disconnecting it? it does look like the ecu one,have you got the one connected to the pipe between the heater hoses on the bulkhead?

No I don't remember disconnecting it. My new heater matrix doesn't have the vacuum pipe between them. It seems too long forthe heater matrix tho. Think what I have done is plugged the one for the heater matrix in where the ecu is ment to be

So I swapped over the vacuum pipes last night. Started the car this morning and idle was horrible, it was all over the place and nealy stalling.  Got about five miles down the road when I remembered that I'd swapped them so pulled over and swapped them back and idle was fine ran nice and smooth. Jus gunna leave it I think  :smiley:
