would a vacum hose in the wrong spot make the code 5? im pritty sure i got the all right.there is one spot on the front of the intake manifold my spare B16a doesnt have it...and i cant find any diagrhams with it either ..And another thing how come after 10sec the code shows up its seems to run fine????thanks for the help.
Is it a JDM motor?
If so...they don't have a Air Control Valve (think thats the name). Not sure about OBD0 but I know OBD1 USDM engines need it.
It taps into the intake manifold (on the back of the manifold) and it has a line that runs to the valve and then to the charcoal canister.
The valve looks like a robot from the 70's to me. The top of it looks like a robot head that shaped like a cooking pot
Not sure if this helps but thought maybe you put the line from the charcoal canister into the Throttle Body??
Sorry if I'm wrong....I know more about OBD1 engines but I thought OBD0 had the charcoal canister too
