Ok as you might or might not know im trying to figure out a lack of power problem. I have disconnected these wires a few times changing headers/gaskets and I just assumed I was putting them back right, they might be wrong. Please help me here.

This is what were looking at:


These are the vaccume lines im talking about:


Which way do they go? Dist to red, Vaccume to Green?


Also is this right?


If you look at the plug you will see its quite worn, should I trim off the out side edge and slip the hoses back on?...or is this fine?


Also what the hell is this? Should somthing be pluged into the end of it? This is located in the corner the passenger firewall area.


THANKS FOR YOUR TIME/HELP!!!!


Thanks for your help!

Those connections dont look all the great, tightness wise?? maybe you should do a test on them when connected to see if there tight??

The Green feeds EGR...and the Red used to connect to your stock upper on the little tree on the neck, or vice versa....That White line does feed down to part of the smog pump stuff...it feeds a diverter valve on the rubber smog line...
All those red/green line do is feed soleniods under the pass side fenderwell...
I disconnected all the stuff myself...

Edit....see the pic...that particular series of hoses gets vacuum from the EGR/Intake nipple THEN feed DOWN.....Red/Grn feed the fender soleniods and the White to the diverter....They dont get vacuum from the intake other than the small tree that is on the stock upper....
Hope that helps some...


See the tree I spoke of on this stock upper.....the line sticking up is the FPR vac feed....Your Red would connect to the other side of that tree...and you can see the EGR for the Green right there...

ok I got it. thanks guys. for some reason the previous owner added these gas lines to the red/green lines which usally just attach to the three connector thing, just figured that out.

think that could be hurting some preformance or causing problems?

last one is used in testing for running codes, ignore it....

The red/green lines are vacuum lines, one goes to your EGR, one goes to your vacuum tree. There is an emmisions diagram on the hood of the car. It will tell you which is which.

Those red/green lines should have rubber elbows on them, unless they broke...

Click to expand...

Look above in my pic....you can see that hose assy...the factory had rubber plug ends as mentioned....thats why I suggested you test them for leakage when assy'd....they could be drawing air if not tight due to the repalcement hose he put on...He would have been better off just running new hose than trying to "scab" on to those Red/Grn plastic ones??? Just a thought...

ohh ok i gotcha, so the wires with the rubber boots (yours) are those red and green? guessing on mine they just burned the end and they broke so they put these rubber extensions on. or do you think he ran entire new hoses (red and green)
