N249 removal advice required

[Mr OCD]

... can someone please confirm I've got my head round this...

I've got a 2002 Cupra (180) and I'm removing the N249 in an hour.

Step one: remove hose from top of DV
Step two: remove hose from top of FPR and from bottom of inlet manifold that the same hose runs too...
Step three: connect new 4mm hose from DV to inlet manifold
Step four: t piece into same hose to connect FPR
Step five: block off any hoses remaining that not connected
Step six: remove vac res. from coil pack four

Is that it? - so many threads on this board with different ways of doing it! - Its confusing!

Yes i just left the vacuum reservoir on though.

I read that you have not to block up the hoses that were removed from the N249.. could be wrong though.

All I did was remove both pipes from N249, from manifold and DV and connect together.

I've not done this yet as Halfrauds didnt have any 4mm hosing.... so will have to wait until later when should be able to try a different branch.

I dont like the idea of leaving hoses unblocked imho...

 

[frannyb]

do they need to be blocked off or can we just leave them

 

[LEE69]

They need to be blocked off or you will be letting un-metered air into the engine.
