So, I am clearing the engine compartment of things that don't work, are not all that effective, and are just plain broken. Started by removing the charcoal box by the front passenger side fender. I identified the solenoid and a severed tube that pumps into or from it. Also, one of the wires that goes to the solenoid had been severed as well at some point. What was the function of this box? Can I just plug the line that goes to the upper intake?
I think I have some relays or solenoids that go to the EGR on the passenger side fender. If I retain the EGR, I imagine I need still these? I remember replacing the EGR solenoids several years ago when my fuel pump was dying. Hasn't thrown a code yet, so I guess they're still working.
I think I will work my way around the engine compartment and identify what tubes and wires go to wherever, and determine whether I need them or not. So, what do you guys do when you do a HO or a performance EFI build?
