okay so i finally got to do this swap b7 block mated with a z6 head. it was a good experiance but ran into a snag, all the hoses are connected but cant figure out were this hose for the fast idle (i think thats what that hose is) connects to? i checked the manual and there seems to be no nipple were it connects to. here is what im talking about (taken from the manual)



its the one with the red line

heres how it looks right now as of now

its the one under the throttle body

also when i fired it up i got the vtec solenoid code cause i havent wired it up yet, sounds like i have an exhaust leak but i know for fact that i dont have a leak and it has to crank over allot to start. everything is TDC and brand new everything. any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

some help plz?

is it true that when i mate the head to the block its gonna be off 1 or 1/2 a tooth?

come on at least help me how to connect my Fast Idle Valve

 

I just did my mini me on my ek, but don't really know about eg's. Why didn't you label your wires and hoses when you took them apart?

free bump for you though

 

1/2 tooth off is correct.
Thats about 4.75 deg.
Get a adjustable cam gear.

As far as the coolant line. If you cant find where it goes, by a 3 way brass tee and hook it up to another coolant source.

Sorry I cant help, I havent used a TB with a FITV in a long time.

 

cool thx guys but hope i can get more help.
i didnt label them cuz i had the manual in front of me its just that there werent no other hose to connect to the FIV? if anything ill just buy a Y adaptor ....

 

 

I have a 97 y8 and recently replace many gaskets and was using mini me swaps as reference for what i should do, and saw that I had this extra hose that wasn't covered in the write ups. I just my looked at my 96-97 delsol service manual to see where they went and am taking a pic for you. one with the direction i believe it goes... BUT CAREFUL I COULD BE WRONG and the other pic is just zoomed in for the detail.





hope that helps u out

 

doesnt look like it has a fast idle valve?

 

bump need to find this hose!

car starts up now...

 

Isn't this the exact same setup Ricey has?


PM Ricey McRicerton he should know.

free bump

 

thats runs to tha head..
but im guessin youve used up all tha coolant inlets already.. juss get an adapter and hook it up to another coolant hose.. easy

 

yea i forgot to say.. nice setup.. very clean

-1-

 

get another TB and don't worry about that.
I have one w/o the FITV the TPS is smashed so you'll need to replace it $10 shipped PM me if interrested.

 

my friend had the same problem ill ask him what to do

 

thx guys but i just put a T line to solve the problem!

 

i hate figuring out which way all those hoses go...just a mess imo...lol!

 

 

b7 bottom + z6 head = use z6 timing belt...
