Default Please help after skunk2 IM install. Which vacum goes where

[IMG]Well we did my IM install a few days ago and my lines are all mixed up. I had some friends helping me and we got the lines all mixed up. The one on the top of the intake mani goes down to the black box correct. Here is a pic of the one on the intake mani we had to plug it off cause it would not idle.


Ok i looked below the intake mani and the one that is suppose to be where that plug is just sitting there (isnt there a valve that goes between the mani and the black box or is it just a hose). Coming out of the black box on the motor there is a tee one end goes to the hose that is just sitting there which I think is suppose to go up on top of the IM and the other end of the tee goes to the charcoal canister. This does not seem right that it is teed from the black box and going into the charcoal canister.

I believe I know where the one out of the black box goes (to the top of intake mani) but where does the one go that is coming out of the charcoal canister (currently it is teed in the black box which I believe is really wrong). My friend insisted that it was hooked up rght but I am glad I went out there and looked at it all. Thanks guys

just came across a old thread and it says to tee it out of the black box on the back of the block and take it to the EVAP. Are the EVAP and the charcoal canister the same thing?

the hose that you are pointing is for the pcv valve.hose from there to the pvc and the pvc goes to the hose that comes off the catch can on the back of the block.
As far as the evap, there is a nipple on the back of the im. that connects to the evap solenoid and from the solenoid there is a vaccum hose that goes to the charcoal cannister.
The only one left is the vaccum hose for the brake booster

Is the PCV valve on the black box or does it sit on the intake manifold. If it goes on the IM i dont know what it looks like or anything.

So what you are saying is hook the line I have plugged to the PCV and that will take care of that. Also you want me to run the line coming out of my charcoal canister to the back of the IM. Where is this EVAP solenoid you speak of?

This PCV crap confuses me

i got it now guys thanks. Im gonna need to get a new PCV valve cause mine is not installed now. Maybe thats why it was idling so high when we had it all hooked up cause there was no valve there at all.

As for the Evap im gonna run that to the back right nipple on the IM. Currently that is capped off as well. Why is that back right nipple so small , the hose seems like it is 3/8 big.

yeah, the nipple on the back for the evap is small, if you have a pcv system, you need to get one.
the pcv valve sits on the im.

aright so lemme get it straight because i am having the exact same problem
the pcv hose goes to the piece that is on the front of the manifold closest to the TB
and then the evap one goes to the spot that is under the big hose for the coolant or whatever goes there on the side with the tb?
lemme know if i am right
i'd post pics but i have no idea how
