NOOB Question, Password intake install, not enough holes?

There are two holes drilled in the power chamber but where do I put the vaccum line?

Thanks

Isn't that the vacuum for the throttle body? It can't be seen in your pic, but it should be right on top of your TB, next to the sensor.

You sure that's a vacuum? Check the underside of the throttle body to make sure its not that coolant line

^^ Or that too. Damn, your idea owns mine

i had a PW:JDM intake on my del sol so i kinda remember what didnt add up when i put it on lol

 

[TheEJ8]

It sucks my finger so I was assuming it was the vaccum line.

There is the sensor and the then hose that goes from the valve cover and the the "vaccum line" or what ever it is.

 

[SleepingSol]

All you changed was the intake?

 

[TheEJ8]

Yes but there was three things plugged into the stock intake tube, the power chamber has two holes

honestly, if there's no check engine light, and the car idles fine with your finger over the hose, remove the whole hose and cap off the fitting the other end is connected too. it wont hurt a thing. My skunk2 intake manifold had an extra vacuum fitting when i bought it years ago and i just put a rubber cap on it

But there is a check engine light.

um ok. well there goes that idea lol. Not that it should matter but did you disconnect the battery when doing the install? if not did you try it after to see if the light goes away?

 

[TheEJ8]

When its plugged it idles fine, but Im not sure why i have a check engine light

 

[TheEJ8]

How important is the hose that goes from the valve cover to the intake?

 

[SleepingSol]

not very. i believe its just a breather vent.

 

[TheEJ8]

Lol this check engine light is pissing me off. I plugged the sensor in. Does it take time to go off or something?

What's it for? Might help figuring out what's going on.

If its the pcv vacuum line you can just attach a breather filter to the valve cover.

disconnect the battery for 10 seconds or so then reconnect it

 

[Mysteryemotionz]

To get rid of the check engine light you can drive 50miles n if the problem corrected it self it will go out.

You can also disconnect the battery for 10 minutes. Thus us also recommended so the ecu can utilize the increased aurflow.

This is the hose that the "vaccum line" is coming out of in in the picture above..

 

[TheEJ8]

So plug it or no?
