Default Factory NPP lines?

Factory NPP lines? Someone removed the mufflers before I bought. Hoping I won’t need to buy the kit and I could use the original stuff installed from factory.

Yes. Somewhere the line has to have a plug in it otherwise you would have a vacuum leak.

I would hook a vacuum gauge to it and make sure the NPP fuse is in place. Then if you have vacuum you are good to go, if not vacuum is taken off the back of intake manifold.
Vacuum might be plugged off there.

. Or you could just hold your finger over the end of the line with the car running and feel if it sucks. You would also need to T or Y off of that line to connect the other LH Valve.

So if it is sucking, where can I get the T or Y?
