General Topics / The mess under the intake

Thanks for the reply :)

By small hoses to the throttlebody, are you talking about vacuums now or waterlines? Don't have the throttlebody heater-plate on this car, only the heater below.

But if its vacuum you are referring to, mind give me a couple of pointers on these diagrams?



Here you got the main vacuums going. I think what you suggested there is already stock. The hoses there go from upper intake manifold to ICV to rubber intake boot. The vent hose goes from valve cover to the throttle body. This next diagram doesn't really relieve where it ends, but it do go into the left side (if facing) of the throttle body.



Do I have it right, or more correctly, did they get it right as stock?

Might be there was at least something done right with the M40. Even the ICV is placed out in the open as stock.

By the way, anyone knows of someone that supplies an aftermarket intake rubber boot that would fit this car? Part number 13 71 1 727 636.

This is for the infamous M40, so not quite the right place, but you guys really seem to have it figured out.

Watercooling:


Would I be correct in assuming the parts I could delete is 10, 11 and 14, if I wanted to get rid of my throttle heater? Or anything else I can get rid of there?

For vacuum-lines, I don't think the M40 got the same mess the M42 does, but if anyone sport the M40 and know of anything that can be deleted or rerouted, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks :)
