    Default 4AGE what do i do with these?

    hi everyone just wondering where a few hoses that are coming off the intake manifold are meant to go and something a friend called a Christmas tree on the remote thermostat?
    was told that i need to plumb the blocked hoses for the engineers certificate but i dunno where they go,

    here are pics of what i mean

    thanks in advance

    If it moves and it shouldn't use duct tape.
    If it doesn't move and it should use WD40.

    The ones on the throttle body are for power steering. I'd just loop a hose to make it look good.

    And i'd remove that christmas tree and put a plug in.

    The first one is most likely a temperature switch for the EGR. I'd remove it and fit a blanking bung in it.

    The throttle body ones - two (as bmak said) are for the power steering, but if you loop them you will get high idle; and the third runs to the air con idle up valve - buy blanking caps for all three and cap them.

    Put a ball bearing in the looped hose. Looks more like it meant to be that way

    I pulled the fittings out on the fittings I wasn't using on mine (a pair of pliers and a bit of twisting will do it).
    Then I tapped the holes and fitted grub screws with a bit of loctite.
