Ea82T Vacuum line troubles.

Featured Replies

Hello!  I am having some trouble figuring out the routing for all the vacuum lines on my RX-Turbo.  I'm about 90% done and just have a few questions about where these hoses route too. 

Also... Where does this ground bolt go.

Also also, what goes to this nipple.

can you list your queries a b C d as per photos please?

it may also need to be identified by the year model

i think it looks familiar but can't recall and don't have my engine set up as original anymore

have you checked to see that the two solenoid switches on strut tower have connections to manifold boost pressure? Should be one for boost light in dash and other is rumoured to be an overnight cut out for injectors

And if it was you who pulled apart...next time try my method of coloured zip ties .. same colour for A meets A sort of thing

I did manage to figure them all out for the most part I, now I'm having trouble figuring out a coolant line location.  I started to fill the radiatior with water and it started leaking from the driver's side head bottom rear.  There's a good sized threaded hole where it's coming from directly above the driver's side motor mount (see pictures).

Is this just supposed to be plugged or does it go somewhere?  This is an 87 RX-Turbo.

Yes, there's supposed to be a plug in there with a metal sealing washer. Look at your passenger side to give you an idea what it looks like, if its there.

A. not sure but it was probably something emission related which i removed on mine,

B. looks like the vacuum hose that controls some of your HVAC stuff,

C. on mine it went to the vacuum reservoir since mine was equipped with Cruise Control and the reservoir was located on the passenger side.

D. looks like its just the Vacuum Reservoir your vehicle is equipped with, i wouldn't stress out about it and just plug up both, and see what doesn't function fully.

E. that looks like a ground for a manifold bolt.

F. that looks like the Vacuum Port for the Brake Booster.
