Isnt that lower down Andy and a larger diameter. Looks to have it connected in the pic. Looks like the FPR pipe to me.

Isn't it one for the fuel tank recirc?

[Pistol Pete]

lol whats one of them??!!! I had rocker connection (x2), FPR and servo vacuum connection.

[Andy]

sorry i thought he meant the big 'un.Im sure Mine was blocked off there........

On later xe there is a solenoid on the right hand side of the inlet manifold for the carbon canister fuel vapor recirc, I had it on both of mine, I had it wired in so the ecu light wasn't on but not piped up

[Pistol Pete]

Ah. Mines an early, hence not knowing what you meant!

[Grey]

Errmmm sooo any ideas :roll: lol mine is a early type xe.... that throttle body is from a later type xe ....... (if that makes any diffence)

Or any one have a picture :d :thumb:

Block it off mate, its for the fuel vent valve that connects to the fuel vapour canister but its not needed and nobody uses them on conversions
Heres mine, cut a rivet and bung it in the pipe simples:)

Well I just had a look at my xe sat in the garage and the pipe coming off of that one is going to the top of fuel pressure reg and the one to the right of it goes to the valve thingy mounted to the right hand side of the head.
Not saying this is right but the engine was running ok when removed from a mk3 astra.
Hope this helps

The valve thingy is prob the fuel tank vent valve Dom?

Grey, if it runs ok, block it lol
