Say hello to my little friend!

[zem_41]

Ok cheers Vince, is not possible to cap both off?


Sylux
Yes it fits ok although I had to remove the original bonnet catch support to make room, I installed a piece of metal in it's place and it feels just as solid as it did.

Thanks for the heads up buddy

More done today, I'm pretty much there now, just have all the wiring to do so hopefully will be starting it this wknd with a bit of luck.

Excellent!

One error I can see though, that coolant port you have capped off next to the thermostat housing, needs to link up to the spout near the passenger side engine mount. Not the block drain, the hose fitting that originally went to the oil cooler under the oil filter.
FYI. Soarers don't have engine oil coolers like the LS400 does.

Looking good

Have you found you have enough room for the electric fan without chopping the surf?

Oh and one more, do you just blank this water pipe off?
Thanks buddy

Yep, cap it off.

[BUSHWHACKER]

Ok maybe one more for today then I'll leave u in peace!
R these two vacuums ok to go together?
One is at the back of the plenum the other is coming off the fuel rail diaphram.

Thats the fuel pressure regulator, it needs a vacuum supply.

Cool nice one for the quick reply
Think that should b all the questions for at least a day ha!

[BUSHWHACKER]

Thanks dude
Two more ha!
Where do you connect the brake servo pipe?
At the back of the inlet plenum, there's a small banjo fitting where the hose pipe originally connected to the Lexus' servo.
And what does the resonator box do? Does it just dull down the noise when accelerating?
Thanks again

Yeah it's just a noise suppressor.
I cut the box part off and cove the hole so you're left with just the black tube.

Bit of an update, been busy with work so not had a lot of time but I have most of it back together now, nearly there I think.
Few questions for vince though, been lots of those!
Do I loose all the egr stuff on the side of the plenum?
I looked at the photo in the x thread, looks like all is removed but what do you do with the connectors? Just snip off?
One more
The two pipes under the butterfly, one that goes to the rocker cover, where does the other go?
T/case loom is in the post.
Cheers buddy

I make a blanking plate to replace the egr module. See Lexurf VII for photos.
Just tape over the plugs and tuck them under the plenum.

The two smaller diameter pipes under the throttle body are for coolant to prevent icing in colder climates. I bypass them and just run a length of hose from front to back.

[BUSHWHACKER]

Are these the right way round?

Yup.
