not sure if this works but i am trying to upload two pictures , first shows a pipe i found blanked off with a bolt whilst changing my PCV valves, the second is me trying to point with a screwdriver as to where i am guessing it should go, can somebody clever please confirm for me

 

 

also what is the impact of driving around with the pipe blanked off ( as i have been doing )

 

thanks

fixed, thats your EGR solenoid, has it been deleted, by the looks of that you have also had your AVI's deleted as the other solenoid is present in image 2 with nothing connected to it.

hi Ian , the solenoid with nothing connected is my SBC solenoid , i will plumb that in at some point in the future, thankyou for sorting the pictures for me , much appreciated, sooooooo, back to my original question what does the pipe with the bolt in the end of it do and where should i reconnect it , what is the impact of driving around with it like that

scroll up ive put a diagram up for you, should be self explanatory.

have a look at this link for carbon canister, and AVI deletes, also PRVR deletes.

ian number 12 in the linked picture below shows the tube i am talking about a lot better, question is should i connect the pipe with the bolt in it to this , it makes sense to me but then agin i dont have much of a clue.

The pipe blanked with the bolt is the vacuum supply to the egr valve, leave as it is, faulty egr valves are a known cause of running issues, having it disabled prevents these issues with no down sides.
