hey Slammed83Mazda do you have any vacuum diagrams ? I need one desperetley i cant find one any where? thanx

naw, i take it you got an 1983? its not all that bad on the vaccum hoese i think i counted 7 when i re-did mty head gasket there should be like 3 around the intake manifold by the carburator and a couple by ur front driver fender get some pics and no sorry i dont have a diagram, if u need go get a chiltins manual( or however u spell it) from autozone that was a lifesaver to me it gave me alot of information and i think theres a diagram in there there only $15 and its well worth it

oh and ur reply to the heater hoses, are you talking from the water pump to the head or? get some pictures and ill get some of mine, do you have a/c?

i do have a 83, I have one of those shitty haynes manuals that dont tell u crap. i am in the proccess of trying to get a mitchell manual of ebay. I have ac,about the heater hoses its just the 2 hoses that are running from the heater core. i forgot which one went where.I didnt mark any hose's and i regret it now. My digital camera is broken so I cant upload any pics sorry.So if i picked up a chiltons manual there should be diagrams in there about the vacuum lines?

thanks alot <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->
