Featured Replies

Ill need alot of help with the vacuum hoses in my EA82T Subaru RX 1988.

Hi.

 

I dont have a repair manual and the schematics on the hood is barely readable :) But i dont think i will know exactly where all should go.

 

Cant see all the lines on the drawing.

 

 

But pictures from an engine would really help me :)

Crap. I'm sorry I didn't get the pic today. I'm taking my engine apart tomorrow. I get pics then and get them to you.

Lemme help a bit. I have a pic of where the lines in the third pic go. They go to the turbo.

The line that goes to the boost switch on the top of pic three is for the boost light on the dash

I took pictures.... and they suck.

 

Here is what I can tell you.

 

Top Line, from black sensor, connects to top pf intake manifold.

 

The line below that connects to both the gas canister line in the other picture and the air intake that leads to the turbo.

 

The line coming from the firewall goes into the relay pack where the other two hoses are.

 

Hope this helps.

i can't see to get it right.

 

I have taken some new pics on how i connected it now.

Can someone pls explain what goes where if i have connected wrong.

 

I will give all outputs and hoses a number so it's easier for me to know what goes where. I suck at english so i think it's there my problem is :D

 

I numbred them from 1 - 7 and pls use the numbers when you explain.

I know what the intake boot is and the canister in the front i call just as

easy as black canister :)

Ok, based on my '89 rx here is what I would try...but first I cant tell you what #5 is in the second picture. Does not show up in my '89 fsms, could be import or something we havnt seen much of.

 

#1 and #3 join with a tee and run another hose from that tee to #4(I have a slightly diff set up,1/3 teed hose hits canister first before #4) see pic

#2 goes to #7 with a check valve seperating them ( 2 different diameter hoses)

#6 goes into your intake boot once installed.

This is what I have on my 89 and 90 turbos, checked my 86, slightly diff from what you have

Good luckpost-31758-136027639308_thumb.jpg

Its an 1988 Subaru RX Coupé. I'm from Sweden and the car is originaly sold here in Sweden.

 

I dont know how much better pic thats needed, if i take a pic from

a larger distance you won't see the hose that's number 5.

sweden huh, cool. I'm thinking that 5 can be plugged. I think you have an additional vaccum nipple that my 3 cars do not ( thus a better picture ) heres a pic of how my ea82t's are set up for vac lines.

Good luck

Mark
