Vaccum line fun.
As many of you probably already know I’ve been having some tricky idle problems ever since winter came and left. Since they’ve shown I’ve done lots of stuff trying to hunt this thing down, and I seem to be getting closer and closer. What this thread is for is I need a few people with B16As that don’t have any idling problems to take a quick peak at their vacuum lines and compare them to what I have hooked up please!

In this one you can see the top line off the dashpot and the top line off the EGR valve both going to a y-connector then that being hooked into the air intake. You can also see the top right line off the charcol canister and the right-most line off the throttle body going to a y-connector and then from there being hooked into the vacuum rail.

Here you can see that I have both side hoses off the two selonoids going to a y-connector and then from there being hooked into the back of the vacuum rail.

Here you can see that I have the two bottom hoses off the two selonoids going to a y-connector and then from there being hooked into the spot on the back of the intake manifold.
The right-most connection on the end of the vacuum rail goes to a t-connector and is hooked up to my map sensor and then the plug at the end of that.
Also in the pictures you can see the obvious connections, front of vacuum rail to the fuel pressure regulator. PCV hose from front of intake manifold down to the PCV valve. Bottom hose off the EGR valve going up into the other slot along the back top area of the intake manifold near the throttle body.
If anything differs from your setup, please let me know. If you see something I have wrong PLEASE let me know I’m going insane trying to figure this out. Thanks.
