Question about these valves on my supercharged mustang
I have 95 mustang with the power dyne and I found one end of the surge valve not connected. The bottom part connects to the cat and where does the left hose of the valve connect to? Does it connect to the bottom part of the egr valve?
On the valve there is a nipple, should there be a vacuum line connected on top of it? I found a vacuum line that is not connected and wondering if there should be a line on top of the valve?
There is another valve to the right that connects to the smog pump, is that another surge valve?
On the intake tube there is another valve that looks like a surge valve, so I have a total of 3 surge valve, what is the purpose of having all 3 of these valves?

it should be going to a metal pipe that runs to the back of each head. its designed to pump fresh air from the smog pump into the back of the heads and into the exhaust ports. this helps the first set of cats work better

I looked from the top at the back of the heads and I don't see any airtubes. It this air tube noticeable? How big is it? Is it only seen from going under the car? Does this hose need to be connected to the airtube?

the tube should be easily seen because it wraps around the side of the head and points forward on the passenger side.

its for emissions so if you dont have to pass smog then you dont need it. if the last owner took it off, your going to want to make sure they did it right by plugging up the hole in the back of the heads.
