Default Vacume hoses rear right intake (V12)

Hi there!

I'm a stupid person. I took the engine to pieces and took ONE photo of the vacume hoses on the rear right intake manifold... This is now a problem.

I've manage to solve one hose issue... That was the one for the thermo switch or what ever it was again I've got 3 pipes left. One is supposed to have a rubber cap... The other two are now kind of "strange".

One is for the little blue switch, located under the manifold. That is so far understandable and selfexplaining. But I have a rubber 90° hose and can't tell, what else is supposed to join with it.

My V12 is a British spec cat-free Marelli ignition ('89) - incase these differ here...

Cheers!

Regards

Damien

there is a vacuum pickup on the top of the right throttle body that uses the 90 degree fitting, and that goes under the TB to a blue solenoid valve

might be that one

Other vac hoses there are:

Vac to the transmission.

Vac supply TO the climate system, via the small tank tucked behind the RH bonnet lock.

Vac TO the small Blue/White fuel changeover switch. I THINK Marelli still got that one???????.

Blanking cap.

Hi Brake Buster,

that one is the only one I had a picture of... But no... There are 4 pick ups. One of them is sealed with a cap. One for the blue switch/valve under the intake. Another for the upper switch (see your picture, the beigey thing on cylinder 6A). and the last one I can't seem to determin. That has a 90° pick up ON the vacumm plug...
