So, I finally got the motor back together after doing the hg's. And I'm betting nobody's done this before... My buddy asked If I wanted the streched and cracked ends trimmed of the vacuum lines on the RH side of the motor. Sure why not right....
boy was that a stupid idea. We didn't take any tape over to the shop with us for labelling, so I just labelled everything with marker...on the tips of the lines too. See where I'm going with this? Now my question is, all you guys that have done HG's on the 3.0 first gens, has anyone actually drawn out some kind of diagram to show where everything goes. I found the vacuum line map under the hood, but it's so wrinkl;ed and faded I can't make anything out. Oh and feel free to post and laugh at me

 

DIgital camera. Helps to take alot of pics as you go along.

 

Tehehehe....

Pics AND labels. Sometimes you may find it hard to make sense of the pics in the tight/hard to see areas.

I don't know of anyone here mapping the vacuum hose routing, but there are threads with pics. If you have to, because you still can't piece them all back together correctly, you might be able to get some assistance at your local dealership. The fellows in the parts dept here are happy to print up diagrams right out of their shop repair manuals.

 

Grab a Factory Service Manual and go through the various sections. It will have all the needed information to connect all the vacuum lines up properly:

vacuum lines all have small numbers on them, you should be able to get a hold of a diagram and find out where each one goes

 

That's what I'm talkin' about! I got my hands on Vol's 1 and 2 (borrowed from dealer) for my '92. Complete details on everything!
