Does anyone have pics of their TPI that could help me piece mine back together? I especially need pics of the area just above the intake and between the runners. The EGR stuff on mine is all gone, and I would like to know what it looks like so I can repair it. I have no idea where all these extra hoses and wires go that seem not to have a place to connect.

 

I cant do pictures , but I can tell you. For the EGR there is one vacuum line the goes to the top vacuum port on the EGR vacuum solenoid. I have attached a picture of a EGR vacuum solenoid. From the solenoid there is another vacuum line from the lower vacuum port that goes to the vacuum port that is under the TB unit. The EGR vacuum solenoid attaches to the same bracket your coil goes on to and points down toward the lower intake. The EGR vacuum solenoid plugs in to a plug that has 2 circular things coming out. The EGR also plugs in to a single wire plug.

P.S. the picture shows the solenoid up side down.

 

Thank you for the info. I saved the pic and post to refer to later. That part looks like it sits on the intake bolts. I guess thats another piece I'm missing. I thought the egr was the piece that was bolted to the holes in the center on the lower manifold. I'm missing that piece too. What is that one called?

 

The EGR valve looks like this, and it does go in the middle of the lower manifold. The EGR vacuum solenoid attaches to a bracket that is bolted on to the lower manifold to the left of the distributor. The bracket holds the EGR vacuum solenoid and the coil. Ill try and get a picture of what the bracket looks like.

 

Is there any other part that is in this system? For that matter attached to the top of the motor. The guy that destroyed the car took everything off except the distributer, intake, runners, and plenum. He somehow thought that this would make it run better I guess. I apreciate all the help you are giving me. I would never figure this out on my own, and it's great to see a place where there are people willing to help like this.

 

maybe this will help you a little bit, I was in the middle of polishing and cleaning and replacing the valve covers.

 

Hope this helps some.

 

Found my camera and got a picture of the bracket used. Yeah my intake is ugly I just blew an intake gasket as you can see. Anyways that’s the bracket you put the EGR vacuum solenoid and the coil on.

 

thank you very much, those help alot.
