I removed the UIM in order to do some work under it. It's been some time and I'm trying to remember where each hose goes. There is a nipple on top of engine block, If I connect a hose on that nipple where would I connect the other end? Or could I just cap it? Question 2: I forgot where the cruise control unit, which is located on passenger's side near firewall, gets its vacuum source( the hose is supposed to go from that unit toward UIM or maybe under it.
Question 3: there is supposed to be a connection between the headers and the actuator pipe to make the actuators work for fifth and sixth port. Help to make that connection is appreciated (location and what it looks like, the actuator pipe).

Good morning.

Attached below are the complete vacuum hose routing diagrams for your vehicle. One is for turbo engines (the bigger diagram) and the other is non-turbo. Hopefully this gives you a better idea where every thing connects.

Let me know if you need anything else!

Those diagrams do not show the top of engine where the vacuum spout is located. I wanted to know where this spout connects to or whether it can be closed with a cap. Furthermore, the cruise control unit is not shown in the diagrams.

Can someone provide instructions or photos on my previous question? The FSM diagram or AllData diagram etc, are unhelpful.

Hello Ken,
See attached photo showing the port( looks like a vacuum nipple). It is in between the 2 fuel injectors. Where does this port connect to using a hose? Thanks

Hello Ken
Following up on the quest about the port in between the 2 fuel injectors. I think it connect to the middle port of the 3ports as shown in the attached pic. Correct me? The hose that's seen hanging, I say it goes to the bottom port of the 3 ports as shown in pic. Can you help with the other arrows with question marks in the pic? 2 are from pulsation damper (?) THANKS
