i really need a favour if some VE guy can take a pic of the area wat i have circled in my picture blow....if everything would be clearly visible that would be great i would be very thankful

 

Having trouble putting back together?

 

lol not really i have already assembled almost everything jus waiting for the new gaskets to come in mail...i jus wanted to make sure cuz i didnt take any pics (which i shoud have takken) so i put everything bak right the first time and wont have any problems after all cuz i dont wanna take alot of stuff bak out cuz i jus didnt put something right lol.......just for reference...

 

Oh s**t! Seems like we're both in the same boat. I forgot to take pictures before the removal. I'm waiting on my block to come back from the machine shop. But I plan on going and taking pictures in the junkyard. I'm going to do as much research before I put it back together That way I won't screw up.

 

theres ntn serious to screw up till u go down to bottom end

 

It's kinda hard having the feeling of putting something together and finding out you have extra screws and bolts after putting it back together huh? Good luck with that.

 

That just means you didn't do something correctly. I plan on having a few extra screws b/c I took some spares from the junkyard and somethings I took off I don't plan on using when reassembled.

 

Best I can do.

 

These might help. This was my first VE, FSM routing illustrations are shady so I too pics.





You probably don't need this one:3p

 

U R SUPER HECTIC...and thanks for the pic jeff .....

jus need to make sure another thing...

i have VE AUTO and i m confused about weird stuff or i have lost something

1. EGR CONTROL (EGRC) -BPT VALVE ( do i have that no rite? )

2. EGR CONTROL (EGRC) -SOLENOID VALVE ( i have that in my hand ritenow )

3. POWER VALVE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE ( does Auto VEs have this valve )

i duno why i m thinking that i have another valve than EGR SOLENOID VALVE and i cant find any other valve around me other than mentioned above....thanks please can someone clear this up for me?

 

Hey jeff can I see a pic of that exhaust manifold for that turbo on the ve in the background? Was going to take that route but wasn't sure best way for set up.

 

VE autos don't have the power control valve.. not sure what the EGR control "BPT valve" is

 

I already have the manifold setup (90%) and it wouldn't make sense to do it again. I just have to pull it all out and take pics. It's a x-over from the rear. Not really designed for high boost though.

 

thanks james....thats wat it says in FSM egr control bpt valve moniters exhaust pressure to activate diaphragm, controlling throttle body vaccum applied to egr valve....

 

Very nice engine.

 

Yeah, you're right... I did do something incorrectly, that's why I had to take it apart and put it all together again retracing my steps and sometimes peeking in the manual also. I believe its good to make mistakes you can learn from.

 

nvm guys theres only egr solenoid valve in autos....but the one i have its broken now... does somebody have that in stock? or do i have to go to dealer for that...or can i swap it from VG? are they same?

 

a VG one should work as long as you don't mind it free-floating in midair (or you can ziptie it to something)

 

thank you cap...i will try that....but i found the broken piece of the solenoid with the hose on i will try to put that bak together if not then VG for the WIN

 

Hey jeff what stage act clutch is that?

 

Stage 1 or something. I couldn't imagine commuting on anything stiffer.

 

trying to glue it back on will likely just clog it up

 

Permatex Super Glue is GREAT

 

ibnoairflow

did you apply the glue before putting it on, or did you just hold it in place and apply the glue like caulk?

 

before i applied a lil bit of glue on the broken piece like really lil then i put it on and applied on the sides and hold it for a min and it was rock solid then i took a needle after an hour and put it in the hole and it was all clear

 

havent been on here for a little bit. If you still need any pictures, I have a VE auto. Hope you got it all figured out. If not let me know. Nice glue job . Im sure you could find one that would be jsut fine at a junkyard, if that glue ever fails.

 

thanks Maximaman1313 i figured everything out....jus done painting my intake manifold and Valve covers

Painted with 2500F temp paint first



then painted with shiny 1500F temp paint
