P38 2.5 Wheres this Loose pipe belong ?

Guy Prince · May 14, 2017

Hi guys . I was checking fluids today and I spied this loose pipe hanging about . The end is split and looks like it's been plugged in somewhere, I've had a good butchers about but am unable to spy it's home.
I have a lack of power issue and wonder if it's related.

It's a '97 2.5 m51 no maf, no egr and only a little over 100k

Looks like the MAP pipe. Should plug in on the underside of the inlet manifold on a little ally peg-like pipe.

I am on coils yes !
I wondered if it went there, but also thought why would you connect a vac line to the eas from a fuel filter and dismissed it as a silly thought.

It's not a vac line it's the pressure line from manifold to MAP sensor. Tells the ECU the boost pressure in the manifold. Make sure it is clear with no splits and manifold connection is also clear.

I have yes. I'm actually considering printing it all out. I spent a couple of hours getting frustrated with poor navigation through it unless there's a better way

You must have a PDF version. Proper version is easy to navigate.

I said vac line but it's a similar action on the pipe. It'd also help explain the down on power issue I have. Thank you.

Free downloads specially for your year are getting rare.

Free downloads specially for your year are getting rare. This the best version for you. Used to be free from Cannell manuals but the bloke now runs this site and charges for it. http://www.emanualonline.com/Cars/Land-Rover/Range-Rover/1995_1999-Land-Rover-Range-Rover-P38-Service-Repair-Workshop-Manual-Download-(1995-1996-1997-1998-1999).html

Thank you . I'm happy to pay for it if it helps me out as I'm sure it'll be used more than once.

Got my version covering 1995 to 1999 from Cannell manuals but the bloke has shut that site and now charges for it on his new site. Lost it when i changed from XP to Windows 7 pro. I had to download an ISO version and use winzip to mount it on the hard drive. Get that here. http://www.myrangerover.co.uk/rave-workshop-manual/

If need be I'm sure one of us can zip it up and put it somewhere.

Guy Prince · May 15, 2017

Got it

I found its home, YAY! ?, there was a very small outlet stub under the inlet manifold nearest to the radiator. It was tricky to see as it was hiding and fairly small.
I replaced the pipe with some new silicon hose I had kicking about.
The test drive revealed a little of the missing power thats been missing , I suspect the coolant temp sender will reveal the rest.
