has 2 lines on it I couldn;t trace...so thats the EGR? Hey thanks! alot to digest yeah knw about Leggs Diamond how could we forget the Tenterfield Saddler... Glenn Innes has sapphires better hospitals First thing I have to correct is if the green/lemon vaLVe is a one way valve & should be like yours then mine is backwards valve behind wur is OK goes to left thermo vac switch then to the back side of the intake I see your hose is off & I see the port in the intake so thats ok (at least it will be when the tvv thats broken is replaced) the top wur valve goes to the rubber port off the icv so that ok I never traced the red hose on the front wur it goes down can';t see where... Some are fine Some I; have to trace Seems that green yellow one way valve might be backwards unless thats a down under car We all know things go the opposite direction down under... LOL Thanks Helps me get going iun the right directtion!

Trying here
but don't see some of those ports on the throttle body inside it? under it? My head is swimming its late maybe some sleep just think as mine is a mid year 82 its not matching up with the 9/83 parts book darn Anything I am missing think there is another unattached wire on left drivers side of intake too.. I can't seem to see vac hoses on the throttle body like in the digram I'll have to takeoff air assembly & see if I can see better now that I have more of an idea for what to look for Are you sure my yellow green valve is backwards? If it is guess correcting that should be a good thing Thanks so much again

Thats somewhat later,yours is an earlier car with vastly different vacuum set up.
It's a pretty simple matter to get the air assembly off,and is in fact a good idea because the black rubber moulding underneath is prone to cracking which can cause idle problems,while there it gives you a good chance to replace any cracked lines etc. The sensor you circled with the question mark is a engine water heat sensor to tell the injection and electronic idle control that the engine is warmed up. |

Guess its Monday in Brisbane I have had the air cleaner assembly off a few times Its no problem The rubber under it is ok I did clean the assembly was a small amount of soot I;d like to clean the throttle body but the right way not even sure how to go about that yet Been doing research so I can know my way around in that area & its hard to find 82/ 83 cars I remember trying to trace those lines most of which you say got to throttle body or throttle switch & they are hidden Been reading not to use carb cleaner in throttle body as its much too strong... I got it basically for external cleaning Good thing I didn't us it in there as there are seals & things & also a protective coating that could be damaged... Also you should dab a dot of oil on the shaft when clean...? Thats my fuel dis & air plate sensor pictured above I really don't see any vac lines hooked into it Will have to get a better look but since I live in a community garage & really working on cars is not allowed I wait til weekdays when most people are in work & then I can do it less noticed...

Sorry,i thought you meant the upper part of the throttle body. once that is off everything becomes clearer.
I understand what you mean aboutr community garages,i'd go nuts if i lived where i wasn't allowed to work on cars. ![]() So far you havew nailed down the majority of things that can go break and cause running problems.The biggest single thing you can do with those cars to make them run better is to DRIVE them. The design of the valves etc ensures that the engine runs better and better the more you use it. if you want to go ahead and buy a idle control unit and it's electronic box,this guy has them cheap on ebay second hand. I've bought from him before and his prices and Knowledge are very good. |
