Hello folks, I am trying to re do my vacuum lines on my 86.5. Someone has run them all over the place. So, I have the intake lines sorted but there are a bundle of lines attached to the brake booster that I can't find a single source to tell me how they should be run. Along with the proper orientation of the check valve. A good picture of a well sorted or original 85/86 would speak volumes on how it should be run.

Thanks in advance,

Check valve = from Booster, blue facing FW and goes to 4 way, to HVAC inside cockpit, and two into fender for Cruse and vacuum canister, one of the 4 way is usually plugged for test port.
Auto trans if so equipped, is fed from same as the FPR and dampers (as it is a variable) from TB higher of the back two ports.

Thanks, that will help. So, that is what I will use the 4 way I took off under the intake. On mine there are a bunch of Y connectors at the brake booster that I just can't figure out. Now with this info I could probably put it together. Would still like to see a pic of an original setup. I am trying to keep this car as original looking as possible. Not for value reasons but that is just how I like it.

Thank you Ramp. That is exactly what I needed. I don't know why that didn't come up in my searches. I searched on everything I could think of and didn't get what I needed.

Stan, I should have posted a pic. Just didn't think of posting a pic.

One more question, in one of the pic's from that thread it shows a hard white line leading to the "Flap actuator". What and where is the Flap actuator?
Thanks,

Ramp

In the 86.5, that's the line that is plugged since we don't have the Flap

Thank you again kind sir. I appreciate your prompt help. Now, as soon as the parts gets here from Roger, I can put this thing back together and maybe finally get to drive it
