why does my Vin no show my car as an 85 but my vacume system matches that of a 86-89? and not any diagram for a 85 i have ever seen? it does not even match the under hood one but as far as i can tell it has about 50% of its plastic line left.

 

maybe someone swapped the rad support, or hood...

 

and engine as well.


Be truthful, your car is now 20+ years old. You are very likely to find something that doesnt match what it came with stock.

 

1985 MPFI Vacuum line set up is a one year stand alone design.
No other year matches it at all
But those other years are close.
This picture is what ya seek.
Patch your lines with 5/16" windshield wiper hose.
The hard plastic lines do not exist anymore so treat yours with respect.

how many yards did you have to travel to get that pic/label? LOL

 

None!
Person I "got this from" should be chiming in real soon!
Now ask me about scoring the 1985 S-10 series Vacuum hose sticker label!
That was a tail of chasing down since 1989!

 

ya thats what my sticker is but the vacume cannister in my car is on the other side it dies not match at all.

 

It's yours also.
This is from a FIREBIRD!!!!!!
Just be a bit creative in the following the path of hoses.
PLUS yours being not in CA (as in smog laws rule), could be "deviated from" due to age & someone else hacking the hoses for whatever reason.

 

*chime*




also, check the help section for some of the hard plastic line replacement. I noticed some after the 3.4 was gone.
