?? Should the 1 way vacuum valve be with arrow pointing away from vacuum source (inlet port spigot?)
Air flow is from actuator to manifold, the arrow should point this way. If in doubt, remove the valve, see which way you can blow through it.

Edited to add: make sure you can only blow through it one way.

Bought a MightyVac to test vacuum integrity.

Chose the right nipple, disconnected tubing at TB inlet, pumped the handle and...
NO VACUUM!

Checked the nipples again, made sure the clear MightyVac hose was tight. Still no vacuum!

And that's when I noticed the on-board vacuum line was disconnected from the servo module!

WTFO?

Did it disconnect when I removed heat shield?
Did I never connect when last working on it?

Don't know. But connected it, and she appears to be system tight.



Will test next week if possible, but I'm kinda running out of time before I go back to nuclear jail.

Oh, also added a connector so I can easlily disconnect brake lights from cruise control circuit should it still not work. e.g. can test while on the road.

Having to trailer out 5 miles really hampers the quick test ride.
