I'm trying to clean up my engine bay and i found this vacuum reservoir. does this thing only need to be installed if i have cruise control? I have already removed my cruise and dont want it cluttering my engine bay.

can i just cap off the incoming vacuum line?

will it affect anything else, idle etc...

is the electrical connector just for a purge solenoid?

 

you dont need it. its the one that goes to the intake right? there is another box that looks like that under the im too that u dont really need either. but if its the intake one on the left side then no u dont UNLESS u have a stock intake.

 

That one goes with the resonator box on the intake, and it looks like it's been broken off, so you don't need it . Just remove the box and cap the nipple on the manifold. The one under the manifold you do need. Removing it can help your midrange, but hurts your bottom end power and your milage

 

yea this is the one that sits near the passenger side wheel well. ill try capping off the vacuum line and get rid of this thing. thanks guys

 

if you unplug it you will have a check engine light

 

? why would you? i have took mine off my 97 and my 92 and never got a think.

 

did you even read what you wrote

 

You shouldnt throw a code, it just controlls the butterfly plate in your intake manifold. It opens the plates at a certain rpm for better top end and stays closed at lower rpm for a longer runner and more tork. Longer IM Runners= better low end/Short IM Runners= Better top end

 

yeah i meant thing**

did u read what you wrote? cuz spreading wrong info around, is a little worse than me mistyping one letter.

 

well when i bar'd my h22 in my del sol i didnt have that sensor and there was a check engine light "not a thing" and when i got the "intake control solenoid valve" the check engine light went away so im not spreading anything but your moms legs
