okay, as some of you may know i swapped my 94 engine into my 97 st with only minimal changes as switching over all
the accessories and intake.
and now that i'm wiring it all back together and running all the hoses and vaccume lines, i noticed some of the places where
hoses should be ran there are some caps on the intake?

i don't know if i should take them off and run hoses or leave them on? one is on the top of the intake, and the other is on the bottom....

if it helps the 97 was a standard, and the 94 was an auto....

also, does anyone have some close of pictures of where all the hoses/vac lines go? i know i was told to just look at the diagram on the firewall,
but that can be confusing at times , and it doesn't have all of the hoses...


also there is one other thing i'm curious of, over by the power steering pump on the bottom passenger side, there is a long hose/tube that comes from the driver side and has an open hole/connecter on the end, kind of looks like the same thing as the shifting cable ends..... but i don't know where it goes either...

i can try and get pictures up later, but i still cant find my camera... so some pictures of how its all supposed to be ran would be very much appreciated.. thanks guys

okay well i couldn't find my meter today so i wasn't able to test it.... but i still don't see how the igniter could of went bad if it worked fine 3 months ago, and only sat outside for 2 months in the summer..... then was rolled into our garage.... it seems to me it should still work fine....


talked to spider some more, thought it might be because of alot of moisture in the distributor maybe?

and for the ecu, i don't think it could of gotten f-ed up as to the fact i didn't even undo the harness, just pulled it all neeatly out of the way and plugged everything back in as it should be , no bare wires ever touched anything they shouldn't have or went somewhere they weren't supposed to as the only things i messed with were plugs, never wires by themselves.......


so hoping someone can shine some light on this or maybe tell me a way to do another test to find if its the distributor or not .......... getting very disheartened
