Title: 2.0 16v Vi system????
Post by 10mpg on Jan 31st, 2010, 6:41pm
Just about to fit my new 2.0 VI manifold to my 2.3 engine no more cracked manifolds for me!

Just wondering about the correct plumbing of the VI system actuator, I guess it takes a vacuum feed from somewhere but want to make sure it gets the right one as i imagine it's pretty crucial to the whole power/economy thing!!

Any Thoughts?

or anyone with a 2.0 16v fancy having a look and/or taking a few photos of how its plumbed in?

Of little consequence, I went out to my shed to take photos of my spare 2.0L engine with the system connected, aye it's new from the factory, but it's got no vacuum pipes fitted!   There's a lot of bits blanked off with plugs, sorry I couldn't help.

Hiya 10 mpg. Matt actually converted a 2.0ltr inlet to fit a 2.3 so he would probably be the one to ask. From what he said i dont think it's too difficult  :-/
