Hi guys. in need of your assistance.
Cleaning breathers on 2.5 v6 est. ready to put plenum on but have 2 hoses dont know where they go. 1st one is the little vacuum elbow at rear of plenumn. second one os the long pipe that comes off the air intake hose on the passenger side. Large pipe that fits onto plenum, smaller bore pipe fits onto valve at front  (idle speed adjuster valve)then there is the long thin pipe that comes off the larger pipe (seems to extend to rear of engine) any ideas?

1st one sounds like vac pipe to rear multi ram, does it have 180 degree rubber u bend on the end? Or right angle?
2nd sounds like feed for icv on side of plenum if i understand your description correctly?

Maybe post a pic...

It is hard for me to explain about all those connections instead of having your engine in front of me and just doing it!!

I think the best thing I can do, that may help, is to show you a picture that is held under the forum guides which is a rear of engine view that quiet clearly shows the pipe connections.



hope this helps!

PS There is a pipe that "floats" free of any connection, which is of about 3/8th" diameter and "virgin" in appearance, having never been connected.

The long thin rubber pipe moulded into the Idle Air Valve pipe is an air-pressure feed to the fuel pressure regulator (shiny round metal thing attached to fuel rail).

To check where all you vacuum pipes should connect look here http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152565204. It might be worth checking that all the vac pipes are in the correct places as they are often wrong.
