3 vacuum hoses????????

Allright I removed my cats from my exhaust. I thought since I dont need the air pump any more I should take it off. I bought the block off plates and removed my ACV the only problem I have now is I have 3 vacuum hoses that I have no Idea what to do with(the hard lined ones next to the acv). Any ideas of what I can do with them as for as routing or block off. Please help.

it is... they are no longer needed without the AVC

just make sure you block them off, don't route a line from one to the other thinking that is ok. and don't use them for a boost source like to the pressure sensor.

Of those three only one was a vacuum. It went to the grey solenoid. The other two were pressure. One of those took air from the airpump TO the blue solenoid and the other returned that air to the acv at the bottom to power the relief diaphram in the bottom of the acv.

Like they say, just plug each end with something. Two to keep the dirt out and the one to keep the vacuum from sucking.
