I am going to use this thread to ask you guys any and all questions on my V2 system install~~~~hope this thread works good for me....so keep looking in here and help my sorry a$$ out!
First set of questions:
I got no vacumm block with my intake? 84/85 doesnt work! the bolts are to close together to mount it.....will the 86/87 vacumm blocks work......are the mounting bolts further apart? Anyone they got they can measure the holes in it to see how far apart they are.
The guy did give me a vacumm block off a FORD!!Maybe it will work. It is a inclosed unit that doesnt need to be mounted anywhere special. It has 4 connections and has writing on it:
Writing Hole size
S big
B/R very small
S/C medium
B/B big.........same size as the S one.
My TPS on the trottle body is busted, just noticed it, had to have happen in the delivery..... I believe it is the TPS it is on the oppisite side of were the trottle cable hooks up and has a three pin or probe connection...........the 84/85 stock one will not work as it is working in the opposite way.........the little metal clippy thing does move the same as the V2 does??? 86/87 one going to work or am i up a stream without a TPS??
Were the EGR valve connects to the intake there is the two holes for the two mounting bolts and then no hole for the EGR.....it is welded shut......ok.....good!..........but what do I do with the hole were the EGR tube runs to at the back of the intake right under were the stock system had the turbo go into? just find a bolt and put her in there.......?
How do I get the injectors out............can i just pull the whole fuel rail with the injectors? Intake is off the car now...........I am just trying to get everything organinized and ready to go and have found probs.............
Were does the V2 intercooler bracket connect to on the engine??I havent really looked to hard yet.......
NO inlet bell(got one from Turbowrenchead), vacumm block, intercooler had three leaks in it(local radiator shop fixed it for $88 and repainted it), TPS is broke and gosh darn I am just getting But, seeing has how I wont run into one of these again probably I will make it work no matter what parts I am missing or are broke....I am sure I will run into more probs........as this is my first intake and major mechanical thing I have done on a car! So I want to take my time and get things right the first time. I appreciate all you guys help and input and anything you can throw at me..........and also any advice on intake install what to look for, anything.
Ok i think that is it.........sorry for the long post........wait no I'm not Thanks again guys!
