Default SuperRam install questions




Are these correct?

A=brake booster connection
B=vacuum from EGR solenoid
C=vacuum from FPR
D=blocked off MAP sensor
MAT sensor under plenum

I'm thinkin "B" and "C" makes no difference

Where do I get the nipple connections for "B" and "C"? The holes are threaded but no nipple(I just like saying that) connections

What is this evaporation canister that I have read about? Something else I need to add?

Thanks boys,

Chuck

A is vacuum supply for brake booster
B is vacuum supply for HVAC and Cruise Control (they branch off of each other)
C is vacuum supply FPR and EGR (they branch off of each other)
D you can just put a pipe plug in, thats for the MAP sensor.


Can the nipples be screwed off of the original plenum? I forget, my SR came with some.

The Evap cannister doesn't connect to the plenum.

Ahhhh, I think they do screw off now that you mention it.

So what does the vapor canister do, It's probably fuel related but I don't remember seeing anythink like that during my last tear down.

So what does the vapor canister do
It collects the vapors from your fuel tank that create positive pressure in the tank. When the cannister gets to a certain point it purges the vapors into your throttlebody to be burned.
