as above. i've been fighting with my gte engine to get it running properly, & i definitely have a rev/vibration/wiring problem, but i was re-reading my haynes & its sown a few seeds of doubt that my vacuum pipes are in the right place. has anyone got a decent engine pic with them on?
i have one from under the tb that goes to the 2 pipe fitting on the manifold near the dizzy.
the egr has been removed & blanked
then there is a bundle on the lh end of the plenum, this leads me to the other possible problem.
the coasting valve is also on the lh end of the plenum, if i pinch the big pipe, the revs drop to normal idle, but without it being pinched, it runs more like the icv is open, which it isn't.
but if i try to adjust the idle revs, it cuts out.
how do i test/adjust the coasting valve??
is there a successful way of simply removing it if its not repairable??
