Throttle body ?

My accel TB has no spot on the bottom to plug in the vaccum hose. Where should I plug this in at?

That is the only timed port on the TB, and the only one appropriate for the EVAP purge and EGR solenoid source.

Thanks for the help Vader but what do I do. That plug is not built on to the TB. What are my options?

Options?

Call accel and inform then that they "forgot something" on their replacement TB;

Drill a 0.050" hole in the stock location just behind the throttle plates, then drill a larger hole to accomodate a press fit tube, and install your own fitting;

Install a factory TB;

Eliminate EVAP and EGR.
