50365, full throttle sensor and purge q's Posted by KSeclipse, Jun-11-03 08:16 PM
anyone have pics of their solenoids and how they mounted the throttle switch that senses when it's at full throttle. I can't figure out where to put that bracket so it clicks on when i floor it. also for my purge, it came w/this little copper tube but it wont reach where i want it to go, can i just put a piece of rubber hose on it and run it where i want? or will the nitrous eat it. Also, how close to the t.b. do i mount my jet? and can i put the fuel fitting onto the test port even if my wiring isn't done and still drive around w/it unfinished or will fuel come out of the solenoid or soemthing. thanks

Well, I can answer all questions except for the first one:
- You can't just put a piece of rubber hose on, you're going to be spraying ~1000 PSI out of this, that would kill a rubber hose. Try to find longer copper tubing or a braided line that you can get to fit on it. - You want the fogger about 3" away from your TB, facing toward it. - Yes you can run the test port like that as long as all fittings are secure. Solenoids only open when they're opened by an electrical charge, so if your wiring isn't hooked up, then they'll stay closed.

go to advance auto and get a long piece of brake line. it works perfect. I'll get some pictures for you tonight. I made a custom bracket that bolted onto a bolt that holds the throttle body in place. Works great. The bracket that came with the kit wasnt long enough. I got the metal from the roofing/truss section at my hardware store. I mounted my solinoids on the firewall above the TB. I had to flip the fuel solinoid upside down so that it would reach the T in the fuel line.

here's a preview. I still have to wire tie things up and add some loom. I'll post better ones this weekend after i get it cleaned up.

Nice and Hidden ;)... that's just how I like it. I was always like "yes I've got nitrous, and yes I'm going to spray against you... I spent the money on the kit and you didn't... that sounds like your problem"
