View Full Version : where do I put a Vacuum "T" BPG 10-04-2006, 12:02 PM Hey Guys, I'm installing a Vacuum gauge in my xB's console, directly to the left of the speedometer cluster. I've been searching the Tech section and know that I saw something about installing a "T" fitting in one of the hoses located near the battery, Can someone out there help me find that thread? jct 10-04-2006, 10:39 PM the best place i've done is hook it up to the vacuum line that goes to the power brake booster tap into that, thats where i put mine at but my t-fitting is put together of brass hooked up with my vacuum gauge... BPG 10-04-2006, 11:22 PM Please Post a Picture. thanks jct 10-08-2006, 02:01 PM sorry for the delay... i did no cutting of the vacuum line i just added another hose too it http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/hornet_on_the_flower/my%20car/PA070054.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/hornet_on_the_flower/my%20car/PA070055.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b156/hornet_on_the_flower/my%20car/PA070056.jpg BPG 10-08-2006, 02:16 PM Thanks for the pictures.

John low_down_xb 10-05-2007, 07:47 PM heres some info, dont put in a vacuum gauge, why do you need it, do a voltage gauge or water temp, oil pressure, not trying to be a dick like some say here, just feel its a useless gauge in a xB jallamas 10-05-2007, 07:50 PM heres some info, dont put in a vacuum gauge, why do you need it, do a voltage gauge or water temp, oil pressure, not trying to be a dick like some say here, just feel its a useless gauge in a xB Yeah I know its useless, but it was free and I have an extra space for it. Thx John low_down_xb 10-05-2007, 08:44 PM i guess free is ok, but you should try to trade it off for something else jct 10-06-2007, 07:18 PM my vacuum gauge isn't wasteless i use it all the time low_down_xb 10-06-2007, 08:24 PM "use" it for what??? jallamas 10-07-2007, 02:26 AM my vacuum gauge isn't wasteless i use it all the timeInstead of going back and forth, can someone tell me how to hook this up, please! John bB2NER 10-15-2007, 09:40 AM my vacuum gauge isn't waste less i use it all the timeInstead of going back and forth, can someone tell me how to hook this up, please! JohnIt's no big deal. Just find a vacuum hose, cut it and install the "T". BTW, a vacuum guage is helpfull in getting max mpgs. The higher the guage the better the mpgs. |
