Mike! You just saved me so much time!! I don’t have a welder, do you think some High temp JB weld would work? I truly can thank you enough for making this video!
Also, not to be needy but do you have a link to the caps for the back T pipe that you capped off with a vacuum plug. I know you said you didn’t use them but I think I will. I’m working on a 89 E-350 so I can take the dog house off to get to it easily.
@laurentbeauregard4666 I actually just got them from the local parts store so sorry no link, easy to look up though. I wouldn't think JB weld would work no, but you can try and remove the fittings and install plugs, or even just tap threads into the old lines and plug them with NPT thread plugs.
@@mikewrenchin1735 I’m getting ready to do this over the holiday weekend. Got some plugs. Would’ve never thought to tap a thread in there, genius!! Thank you again! Happy holidays!
Would love if you'd be able to show the routing of all the vacuum lines you left in. I bought my truck with the Smog delete already done, so I didn't get to see how it was stock and I feel like I might be having a vacuum issue.
@RobbieE56 I left all the vacuum lines in place where they were originally. Message me on Facebook (Michael Burgin) and I'll PM ya a video of the routing if you like.
@@friendsofpimlicoracecourse8362 nope. It cycles like normal with the key and stays off when the truck is running because I left the solenoids in place.
Don’t do this!!! “Routing the belt this way the tensioner isn't doing its job. Routing the belt a little different (not using top idler pulley), the tensioner pushes down on belt but will bounce up (no belt there to push against) and will cause belt to squeak. Only true way to get rid of smog pump is to get the bypass pulley otherwise you'll have issues. I just went through all of this.”

Did the check engine light come on after the delete ?
