Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hi, I am doing a SAI delete on my 2003' 986 2.7 5sp. My question is. When I place the block off plate where the change over valve used to be, where do I mount the vacuum reservoir? Is the vacuum reservoir present in ROW cars? Does anyone have a ROW vacuum diagram for my car? thanks in advance,

POST 2Original post

I made a bracket to mount the vacuum reservoir on the block off plate. In terms of the vacuum lines, I just referred to the image that has been posted here, and then just removed the SAI bits. I don't have a picture for that as I'm in the middle of a 996 intake plenum conversion. Refer to the images in this post, and instead of a 3 way at I to G, just go straight from I to F Here is the bracket I made. I used material I had on hand, otherwise I would have done it a bit differently:

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

that slotted screw hole on the mount you made was a nice touch. i was hoping there was some kind of ROW oem mount for the reservoir. i will have to fabricate something similar to serve the purpose. thanks for replying.

You give me far too much credit. I had to slot it because my first attempt was too high, but I can see that if I need to remove it I can just loosen the screw and lift it out, so, yeah, I totally did that on purpose!

I never even thought to look, seems I was on the right track as it looks pretty much the same as mine, only mine was free. @flmont I am doing it on a MY00 2.7 so should be the same or similar.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
