Late model vacuum routing help (1 Viewer)

[Oregon LC]

Can someone please help with the vacuum routing on the passenger side of my 11/79 fj40. I have successfully replaced and routed new vacuum tubing on the driver side , I'm now beginning to question if what I've done on the passenger side, specifically from the VCV valve is correct.

The attached picture shows what I have currently. The 3.5 mm has that is touching my fingers goes underneath the air cleaner and tees into one of the two 3.5mm lines, as shown in the second picture.

Any help is appreciated!

I appreciate the help, but I really need a pic of routing around the VCV valve. I've looked at about every diagram out there, they are all lacking in this area unfortunately.

That is the distributor evacuation system, that keeps (highly corrosive) ozone out of your distributor. It's dark, rainy and muddy here, or I would take a picture of mine for you. If you can wait another day, I will do that. Meanwhile, another valuable resource for you would be the Toyota "2F Engine Emission Control Repair Manual". It shows not only routing of all the vacuum lines, it gives troubleshooting routines for all of the related sub-systems. You can download this from here on Mud somewhere, but if you can't easily find it, send me a private message with your email address and I will send you a copy of mine. It's a 1.6 MB PDF file.

Everything you ever wanted to know is here:

Distributor cap vent VCV issue

Just broke the tit off my dizzy cap vent VCV (the one for the line that goes to the distributor cap). I'm going hunting tomorrow and doubt I'm gonna be able to find a replacement VCV in time. Any suggestions on how to rig this? Leave it open or pinch it off? Anyone in North Portland have one?
