Vacuum and Starting...
Holy shit... I just thought a/b it... all the nipples on the TB used to be capped... when I removed it to clean the TB, I took all those caps off... could that be the reason my car isn't starting???
and is it ok to run a vacuum hose between two nipples to block them off?

Re: Vacuum and Starting...
Uh, yeah... Not having those capped will cause a huge problem. Cap em or loop them together.

Re: Vacuum and Starting...
Thanx man... Like I said, it just hit me this morn... I just wanted to make sure I could loop them together too....
Damn, I'm almost certain that's what it is then, b/c I can hear the fuel pump... and I can hear the car... like every time it turns over, I guess the stroke... and it doesn't sound hollow (no spark)... I'm kinda happy, very anxious, and waiting til 5 o'clock... Again, many thanx from my family to yours... Edit: any idea what caps I should buy, if I decide I need to go that route?!? I'm probably just going to loop them together... at least for now...

Re: Vacuum and Starting...
A cap is a cap really... lol Personally, I would just weld them shut if I'm never gonna use them. Then they are 100% leak proof.
