That is not a pressure line, but vaccum.
Does the gray plastic tube go through the firewall, or does it go to the front?

Rudney: looks like this car has been modified to run on LPG. Those six valves are injectors for the gas.

Oh, that's right - I remember you telling me that! So this line runs toward the cabin? The rear headrest "drop" function uses vacuum control, so maybe it's for that.

yes
i am in greece and petrol costs 1.70 euros per litre. that is high as f uck.

the system costs around1500euro now and if you drive some km you will start saving very soon.
the car idles much softer and revs much more precise. the lpg makes the engine reduce emmissions by a lot(more like green)

the lpg here costs. 0.67 euro per litre.

the only difference is a 5% decrease of torque and a 5% increase in horse p.
so generally you will be accelerating the same.
the fuel tank is placed where the spare tiri is. so after this either you wll avoid potholes or install runflats. or carry the spare tire in the trunk ...

it can fit 55+litres.

but make sure the technician installing it can recreate correct maps of ecu being clones and working like oem.

here you can find all details.

so i managed to pass the vacuum line to maf area through a hole from the brake fluid near area. i then connected it (guessing) to a hole that is next to maf and possibly presses out air from manifold when engine runs.

bingo.....

head rests(back seats) now fold back each time i press the button


it must have been some idiot mechanic that forgot when it connects to when i needed to raplace the brake pump.(air leak through pedal)

You may find a few unused taps like this. They are for things that your car may not have, due to it being optional equipment, or equipment specific to certain countries.

that hole is only the place of the screw for that injector connector we call it coils the back boxes on the side of the pic but for 6 cylinders you have 3 if its all there then you are safe nothing missing i just changed mine yday.
