Hey guys. I'm starting to replace the vacuum lines on my car as the first todo thing on my list.

However other than the large vacuum line that attaches to the cold start valve there is another small plug on it. Plus it also has a connection for electical.

Neither the small vac hole or the electrical has anything plug in on it. Where is the small line suppose to go to?

Pics are greatly appreciated.

I am not finding anything on the Hayes manual for this.


Thx,
David

The CSV has a 2 pole connection on the FI wire harness...is that it laying the background of your photo? 1 wire of that 2 wire connection should have constant +12V from the ECU computer and the other goes directly (through the harness) to the thermotime switch just aft of the dizzy. The thermotime switch provides the ground path for the circuit, as temps vary. The CSV injects additional fuel into the air plenum as long as the thermotime switch determines its too cold, and needs the additional fuel.

The AAV works somewhat similarly, but the thermotime function is fully self-contained within it. The heater in the AAV is always on while the ignition is running, and when the AAV is warm, it closes and cuts off the additional air it was supplying to the air plenum for cold starts. Nop wonder they burn out all the time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
