[What am I missing on the Turbo hose? 85 505 N9T]

The turbo intake tube doesn’t look stock, but the stick intake hose has a connection that attaches to the valve cover PCV hose.  The intake provides the vacuum and it ingests those gasses to be burned up.

Dont worry! Its been cursed on jackstands....until now.

I bought this intake boot, I know what you mean about the PCV hose, which fits on the big nipple; however, what is the smaller nipple used for?

Another avenue would be if someone could take a picture of their N9T turbo hose bend to see what is connected to it? I've looked around for pictures but nobody has taken a close up of it...

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello!

Please ignore the duct tape LOL, I am just trying to get the car started and running. I will fix it later :).

 

I got the turbo rebuilt and installed, after putting everything back I decided to start the car and it starts like normal! If I keep giving it gas it will continue to run, but it will die in Idle.

I ran the car with the MAF disconnected and the car runs like garbage but it does idle!

(I am the second owner btw, it also ran before hand) There is a hole in the 90 degree bend, is there supposed to be a sensor/line? Am I missing something?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated! Attached are pictures of the hole, the surroundings, and the engine bay.

[85 N9T Coolant Temp Gauge]

Update

Drove the car around and it performs fine. When I drove I did get the coolant warning but it disappeared. The needle also started to go up towards the middle but did not over heat. I did give it the beans but then the led started started blinking. I think the code is 5- something. I will have to look it up. I'm no expert so I may be talking out of my ass. 

[85 N9T Coolant Temp Gauge]

Hello all!

First of all I just want to say hello to everybody! I recently got a 1985 puegeot 505 N9T 5 speed.

I am fixing it up and I had a question regarding the coolant temp gauge. After I bled the system (according to the post by webmaster back in 2012) I let it idle for a bit. But, as shown in the attachment when the coolant temp gauge reaches that point the cooling system warning pops up to indicate overheating/low level. My level is fine. When I drove it for 20 miles beforehand I did not get any warning lights and the gauge was kinda sitting at around that position.

I suspect I either didnt bleed the system properly or the gauge never worked properly.

 

Here is the link to the guide I used:
