I also have made some plates to go on on the pcv vent plumbing to help hold the assembly together.

Good solution for the loose PVC tube.
I did this in 1998. If you look close you'll see
a screw head with washer. When you tighten the nut on
the other side it pinches the rubber making the connection
tight again. It slides on/off tight.

I rebuilt my starter, all new bearings and bushings works great. but the idea of it happening again really bothered me I really don't like this solenoids design so to give me a way out if it happens again I put a cable running from the stater motor wire ( the Black one) and spliced the purple solenoid wire (the blue one) and sheathed them in abrasive resistant loom material. Now theses wires will be coiled and insulated at the back of the plenum so if it acts up again I can get them and add a external solenoid so my starter can work. I know there will be mixed opinions on this but being a mechanical engineering I am very OCD about this stuff.

Dave :cheers:

Are both maps sensors Under the hood the same part number??

Both MAP sensors? I only know of one.

Only one MAP sensor (#7 - see diagram) at the back of the plenum. Perhaps you're thinking of the (secondaries) pressure switch (#11) under the '90s ECM (for certain) which at some point was later located the plenum, if I recall correctly. Anyway - no two MAPs in the diagram.

I know there is one behind the intake near the firewall. But I was referring to the one under the computer and above the battery.

Today I got the new water pump on and began routing vacuum lines and installed some of my new solenoids in the brackets.

I think that is the vacuum sensor for the secondaries.

So would that be the same parts number??

I have no idea but I do know the only time I've even heard of a MAP sensor failing was when the inlet tube broke off.
