I知 working on a 85 d250 I got some questions I was hoping someone with some more knowledge could answer:
1. The truck came pretty butchered and I can稚 figure out what some of the stuff on the manifold are. From the attached pic I知 pretty sure 1 is a temp sender, 2 and 3 seem to be some sort of sensor(coolant temp?), and I have no idea what 4 is. Anybody able to confirm/id these?
2. I知 trying to figure out what needs a vacuum hose I知 installing an efi system so I think the only places that need one are on the efi, the distributor and I guess unidentified object 4 cause it has a nub for it. Anything I知 missing?
3. On a somewhat unrelated note what does the y pipe do? Mine is broken and I was able to figure out what it is(I think) but not what it does.
1 temp sensor.
2/3 looks like they might have plugged the intake with whatever they had sitting around or 3 might have been temp activated vacuum switch that got smashed.
4 egr valve.
