Howdy! My 85 has that setup. It should have a vacuum line from the PS to an adjustable control valve on the driver's side of the air intake box. It has a large, white plastic thumb screw with a coil spring under it. I'll have to go take a look to tell where that valve gets it's vacuum supply. John

They are not air lines, they are vacuum lines. The device that is screwed into the PS pump senses when the steering is at full lock and the pressure demand is highest, so it bumps the idle up a little bit. I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter which line you hook up to which port, but the ports on the intake are important. The dial on the intake lets you set how much idle increase you get at full lock.
 
if my truck was that clean I would be ashamed of myself;. That would mean I was not wheeling or even going on dirt roads when ever i could,











Ray that is the best diagram I have seen so far.... Do you have one of the elect for the injectors and or that big wiring harness that has the injectors in it.. Not sure if i have a cali system or not...
 
Coolant temp hooked up?

What about that injector ground on the intake?

What about the battery and engine ground?

What about the distributor timing? Got that thing in there right?

intake is grounded we ran a special ground to it...


engine to battery is grounded...

coolant temp on intake not there was not there before rebuild.. I do not have the vacume lines hooked up going to that one.. will hook that up with the help of your pic...

WHere exactly did you find that pic.. maybe I can find what else I need from there... I tried to download a fsm for there but it just locks up my interweb...
