Where should this vac line go?
So ive search ed the vacuum diagrams and fuel delivery sections in the FSM and cant even find a diagram or drawing of this vac component.... it is the elbow bent vac nipple on the underside of the dynamic chamber. It did originally go to the cluster of lines that attached to the thermal wax assembly, but i dont know if it should be re-routed for vacuum and where OR if it should just be capped.... In following Landers emissions removal guide, this is the one vacuum part he missed.... any help? I
m afraid it has something to do with the OMP system, because it would appear that at least one of the oil injectors is pouring oil into the UIM and the car wont start... its acting flooded, but after de-flooding via removing the EGI fuse and lower plugs, 5 times... it still wont start...
Also... connected to the "ignition" wiring harness.... is a small black wire that ends in as a Black box, and bolts to the housing, right next to the clutch slave cyl... mine broke off.... ( the wire ripped out of the box)... another one i searched the FSM for, in the engine electrical section....What does this do? and could it be my non-starting culprit? i doubt it, but im running out of ideas.... thanks to anyone with good info

The little black box with the wire ripped off of it is the condensor for the oil pressure sendor.. it is not "needed" to operate but u will want another one so u dont blow the oil pressure gauge.. My vert has it missing but it wont effect the actual running and driving of the car ..
The other hose is possibly just a vac hose and it wont start because u have a huge vac leak.. I would stick a bolt/screw in the hose real quick and try and start it or better yet take a picture of the hose that way I/or somone else can tell u where it goes..
It may be the one for the oil injectors in which case u will want to run it to a vac source on the front of the dynamic chamber (if u have a s4 na)
On the front of the dynamic chamber there is 3 nipples, the oil injection hose goes to one of those nipples.. I think the lower most but I could be wrong.. then again it may not matter which nipple it goes to
good luck keep us updated

Im pretty sure the vac hose that im talking about has nothing to do with the OMP system, it was originally hooked up to the Thermal wax assy, so i doubt it helps with the OMP, but im no expert.... ill snap a pic though.... Im concerned about the OMP as a seperat ematter though... becasue, when i removed my UIM and LIM, i found a bunch of brown sludge, that smelled gassy, so im assuming that the OMP system is OVER-injecting oil, and theres to much oil to spark....
Also, being that ive removed to entire rats nest, and thermal wax, BAC, ACV, EGR and all the goodies, i think a vac leak that big is improbable, but again. im far from an expert at this game... haha

well if u have an open air line then it will be a vacuum leak I would block the hose off either ont he other end or stick a screw in it and then try and fire it up.... if u KNOW it went to the thermo wax and u removed the thermo wax then block off the house.. its that easy..
I highly dought you omp is over injecting.. I could be wrong but I doubt it.. not only that but I think it would still fire.. besdies the omp should not spayt any oil in there except once the engine is over 3K or osmethign like that!

Regarding the omp spraying oil over 3 grand, yes, i think that makes sense, which adds to the confusion.... cause that LIM was for sure filled with oil and gas....

Well. game over.... dont know what the real reason was for this non-starting trouble, but i finally dumped a chunk of ATF in the block and when that didnt work i sprayed starter fluid into the intake.... started up pretty quickly after that! oh well....
