I\'m in the process of doing the rats nest vac hose refurb job and as I expected I\'ve managed to brake two different solenoid valves nipples.
The ones I\'ve snapped off are item J and item A in the image at the link below (shamelessly taken from rx7club.com).

I\'m rebuilding with stock twin turbo\'s and a PFC, I\'ve resigned to the fact that I have to at least replace item J but being as I\'m deleting the airpump and ACV I\'m thinking that Item A can just be removed?
The index just says A is a solenoid valve: pressure regulator but doesn\'t state for what. I\'m assuming it is for the ACV which I\'m removing.
Any info would help.
Cheers.
That link dont work. Which ones on this one?

Item J and item A in the index- it\'s pretty much exactly the same diagram as the one in the link.
Bumpity bump...

let me know if you need it.
i was under the impression that the pressure control solenoid connects to the fuel pressure regulator but i could be wrong, the airpump is not connected to the rats nest it is operated by a magnetic clutch that dissingages at higher rpm this is controlled by the ecu
Cheers for the pointer Leedslad- I downloaded the service pdf\'s (not the manuals) and had a good read.
Its a pressure regulator for the hot start system, nothing to do with the ACV. It helps prevent hot start vapour locks and stabilise idle speeds on hot starts also.
M4drx- will let you know about the solenoid tomorrow as I may have secured a whole rats nest and solenoids (just incase I brake anymore....)
M4drx- email sent..........
