diablo8511 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Does anyone one have a good picture(s) of their vacuum lines. I'm having a hell of a time putting back together the vacuum system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diablo8511 Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 I was trying to compare on my 88 4.0 the guy I bought it from and made some adjustments I'm not sure about it. he removed the EGR valve and plug that port, removed the vacuum tree so that it goes from crankcase to air box . Is this a adjustment I should mimic on my 87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 These are not the greatest photos I just took them for my own reference when dismantling my engine bay...might give you a starting point. Here's the main "harness"...I call it the spaghetti nest for a reason... the smallest line goes from the intake manifold... to the fuel press. regulator. The two "bent" lines are for the EGR and EGR solenoid. The CCV to the back of the VC. Make sure the metered orofice is in place inside the hose...or inside the VC, and make sure it's not kinked. the other end goes into the other forward port on the manifold. goes to... The "source" line for the cruise control, HVAC controls, and vac reservoir come from here...the larger hose on therear of the intake manifold. Lower right in this pic. ...and finally, the MAP sensor line goes from the MAP sensor to the rubber plug on the throttle body. One of the holes on the TB plug is a dummy with a rubber nipple on the TB side that serves as a "keeper" (no pic for that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadiseMJ Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Here you go Cruiser54 I PM'ed you back. If you have any questions about P'bucket, get back to me. I don't know if I'm much of an instructor. To the OP & other vacuum posters, this is a schematic, your vac lines will be wiggly, not straight & square like this LOL. Just note to and from. Remember the single short little vac line twist tied to the new harness is for the fuel pressure regulator. The CCV hose is a separate part in a separate bag. Everything else goes thru the harness connector...don't break the big RIGID (and brittle) hose for the front of the valve cover. Good Luck.
