Hi there
I am reassembling my 1994 3.9 discovery after rebuilding the heads, and i have a few vacuum pipes that i have no idea where they go.
The vacuum pipe from the back of the fuel regulator, where dose it go??
And the long vacuum pipes for the cruise controll, where do they go??
Is there any one with a Discovery 1 that lives in the Parramatta area with a car like mine that i can come and have a look at and take photos??
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers Phil

The pressure regulator hose goes to the back of the idle air control valve housing. The cruise control has 1 hose going to the actuator by the throttle, all other ends are the cause of perishing/breaks or a missing tee piece behind the washer bottle. You don't need the cruise hose/s connected to run the engine.

The hose with the one way valve dose it go from the heater blue valve go to the back of the plenum chamber as well??
and the long vacuum hose from the air intake, dose it go to the rocker cover??

As most people these days have a mobile phone, use the camera to take a photo BEFORE you pull anything apart. Saves a lot of trouble.
