Car is coming along. Getting the dash in this weekend.
Moved onto the vacuum lines. I see pictures of engine compartments with basic setups.
What lines can I remove and still have a running car?

Thx
Car is a 1987 n/a.

The only vacuum lines you need are to the fuel pressure regulator and fuel pressure damper that are on the injector rail. There is a manifold vacuum port near the throttle body on the manifold. Ashort piece of vacuum line to a tee and then to both the FPR and FPD is all it takes.

Thank you,

Here is a pic of the tn and a control valve.
Do I just disconnect the control valve? Looks like it had 2 connections for vacuum. (Dumb Question, figured it out).

I have the fuel rail vacuum connected to the back side of the throttle body. Will this be sufficient? And blocked off the front.

Thanks again

Yes, the vacuum line at throttle body wiyh the black zip tie is manifold vacuum and goes to the fuel pressure regulator and fuel pressure damper. The other line on throttle body is a ported vacuum and can be blocked off.
