so the drama with the heads was they were both cracked, 6 cracks all up. well and truly cooked it. so in my enthusiasm to get the car on the road again, i obviously didn't pay enough attention to where the pipes on the back of the plenum come from.
so here is what i need, there is a line from the firewall just under the high pressure fuel lines, im assuming its the return? where does that go to?
next is what looks like a vacuum line from near the brake booster, it has a little plastic thing in the end of it, looks kind of like an old fishing float (N00b). where does that go to.
the other one is a little black plastic thing, has a electrical socket in it, bolted to the back of the drivers side head, has two outlets on it. where do these go to?
thanks heaps for the help, sorry for being a total n00b, lesson learned, next time i'll take photos and notes.
The thin vacuum hose connects at the rear of the intake manifold. As for the rest I'm not sure what you mean, perhaps some photos would help.
MY RIDE
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.
awesome, i'll track down some online and post them asap.
oh and the other is from the fuel line, goes into the rail, splits to the two rails, and it has a gold colour valve with another outlet, a little larger than that small vacuum one. is this the other one to the plenum?
ok so i figured out that the thing on the back of the head is the purge valve, one outlet, the one with the right angle, goes to the throttle body, what about the other one? still trying to find a pic of the fuel line in question.

Vacuum line controls your heater/AC air flaps under the dash,old fishing float is the one way valve that holds the air pressure so you get that cool/hot air where you want it.

i think you talking about the fuel vapor return pipe
third picture is your fuel pressure regulator
fourth picture is your canister purge solenoid valve

Awesome mate. Thanks for that. So where does the one way valve and the fuel line go to?
Cheers, what about the other end?
ok, so photo 1: the fuel line obscuring the trans filler neck. goes from under the car, metal line, into that fuel line, what is it's destination.
photo 2: comes from the fire wall, into a valve, then what is it's destination?
photo 3: fuel pressure regulator? on the other side of that, there is a thinner hose, what is it's destination?
photo 4: purge valve? the outlet with the right angled kink goes under the runners, to the throttle body? what about the other side?
people, i can't begin to thank you enough for your help and patience. my explanations pretty much sucked, so thank you again
Runs into the car,behind the dash there is a vacuum control switch which controls your Mode Switch.As the mode switch is turned.vacuum is allowed to move through the mode switch and onto the desired vacuum actuator through different coloured plastic tubing.
1.......To purge tank under the car
2........No,from inlet manifold into the car,
3........???????
4.........Vacuum hose to carbon canister
sweet as, cheers.
everything is connected either at the firewall or under the car already, just need to know where it plugs into on the engine/plenum
seriously mate, have a think about the title of the post
Yeh rookies aren't the best at doing good head jobs
I strongly suggest next time you get your self a Haynes or Gregories Repair book. Will save you a lot of head aches in the future.
If it's not a Symptom its not relevant, and if its not relevant I don't care!
agreed the title is dumb as, but got ur attention right? i've got a pdf manual, the free legal one floating around, but no diagrams for this. still running like a dog, any more suggestions?
