    Replace the solenoid as I am sure that is faulty if you got boost with it unhooked.

    bill dont be drinking anything when you watch the vid lol the loop between the two sc tree ports is priceless even more so when he calls it the evap. lol


    but it runs so theres hope. some quick re doing of them lines will make the car feel right again.

    it came like that! Lol. I've only had the car since late April.

    Guys I'm not very familiar with the pre 04' models and I have only worked on NA versions of the 3.8 Buick engine. The thing that's throwing me is I have several different Gen 3 blowers and some have the little vacuum tree that is held down by 1 bolt and another that the area is not used. So I'm at a little bit of a disadvantage on this system. I did notice the vacuum in the previous pic had one tube piped back to the same place.

    ill have to look at it some more.

    that one goes to the vac line thats clipped to the fire wall, then runs down the pass side fender, its what controls your hvac air flow.

    see the line in the pic to the fire wall?



    one more pic whore of the bee lol

    You have to kinda wish Scotty warned you that sunglasses would be needed before looking at his picture I bet.
