    Neeed a little help ASAP

    I have just broken the nipple of the one way valve at the back of the inlet manifold .its the yellow and black one that tees of the green line to the ecu and the carbon canister
    I have broken the black end that go's to the inlet manifold. What happens if I bypass the valve ,and affectively just hook up the green line from the ecu to the manifold.

      That is the check valve for the AC recirc flap.

        It is a small yellow and black valve of one of the three brass nipples on the inlet manifold. there is a black plastic vac pipe of one of the brass nipples to this valve which
        has three nipples. one vac line then connects from it to the green hard plastic vac pipe That gos through the bulk head,which I think go's to the ecu. The other nipple is slightly larger and I think connects to the carbon canister line. I am sorry but I have no idea if it is a moisture trap or what its for.
        I just need to know if I can bypass it ,till I can source a replacement.

            Apart from the aircon recirc flap not working the diff lock won't work.
            Should not affect anything else..

              Many thanks all. I have deactivated the difflock ,because it kept coming on when it felt like it. Quite scary on roundabouts etc, when you are not expecting it.
              I am going to bypass the valve and see what happens. I will keep you posted

                You can bypass it but the re-circ flap in the heater box won't work unless you have done the whole-hog AC removal and are using the non-AC heater box with cable operated re-circ flap
                To bypass, just connect the green plastic line directly to the inlet manifold. Pink diff lock vac line is separate anyway
