16v Vacuum Pipes??
« on: 21 August 2006, 10:48 »
I've just got the car started after an 8 month clean up and I can't for the life of me find where the two pipes go to the plenum chamber just before the throttle body.

Here -

Also where do the pipes come from, as I can't find that either - I'm such a putz!

Hmmm mine doesent have them. The only places they could go to are the vacume that comes off the back on the intake and the vacume lines that go to the over run valve on the rear bottom of the airbox.

thats the air sensor for the warm air flap in the bottom of the airbox.  Don't worry too much, but if you find any loose vacuum hoses anywhere thats where they go!

I've already got the pipe plumbed in there, but I can always move them about and try something else.

Anyone got any pictures of theirs, as this is doing my head in?

No. 6 and No. 7 on the KR diagram are the vacuum hoses that go to the fittings you have pictured
