    plugs for smog ports in back of cylinder head...

    So.... So I should just use a bolt to thread down in there with threadlocker, that's what I should have done to begin with... getting them in using a quarter to turn those notches is proving ridiculous of a task! THANKS

    plugs for smog ports in back of cylinder head...

    anyone have a picture of theirs threaded in? i need to know how far these go in. trying to put them in with the motor still in tends to be a PITA. I have them I'd say about half the threads in? How the hell can i turn these? Everything keeps on slipping out of the "notches" and I don't...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    Okay, I got the metal tube off, and got the set screws back in there... what a PITA!!! No clearance down there whatsoever! In any event.... do I have to screw the screws back in that held the metal tubes on or can those holes stay unplugged?

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    I got some of those screws. They're identical to the trick flow ones, and come with I think a teflon type seal in the threads?

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    Does anyone know where the TAB or TAD would be, or have a picture? Or even where the vacuum reserve is so I can trace the line to where the thermactors would be? I just want to see if they're still there! Thanks for all of your help! I realized I have a set of those plugs here for the...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    Just realized on a more detailed diagram that they come off of the valves and go to the selenoids. Both valves had nothing coming off of the top of them on my car? Maybe the previous owner took them off? They weren't capped though, so that I guess could have been a problem? In any event if...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    Alright so being that I have the hose from the cats up out. I have the hose from the smog pump back to the first valve out. I have the valve out and the short hose back to the metal piece that goes back to the heads. Which I'll be plugging. So essentially, both valves, and the metal tube...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    No problem! So is that metal line also attached to the HVAC controls somewhere back there? Or do they just go to the head and thats it? I'm looking at the FoxBody vacuum diagram sheet and it has one line running to the HVAC controls and I don't know where they are, or that line is? THANKS...

    Help me create the "Surging Idle Checklist"

    I have an E303 cam, and the idle has always been a little rough. Every once in a while if you could tell you have to give it gas or it's going to stall... really only for a second when the car first started and then it was fine from then on! So recently the car has been doing fine, but when...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    Wow, I didn't realize until just now that there are no rear o2's in these cars! :bang: Dumb question!!! Thanks for the link on the plugs! So when I install these, no fluids will leak out of the heads? I don't mind if it does... just want to be prepared!! THANKS FOR THE QUICK ANSWERS...

    Cap off metal line to heads? And another Smog question....

    I am installing the smog pump delete kit. I have the metal line down to the "lack of" cats already off, and the rubber hose to the bottom of the diverter valve gone. I took from the smog pump back to the metal line that goes to the cylinder heads off as well. So all that's left at this...
