hi guys i refer to a diagram of the amal valve that was posted a few weeks ago which showed one connection being changed dependant on boost pressure.....i.e to earth if running at 16 psi can anybody shed any light on this for me please?

However I think, (not sure) you need all of those connected up, i.e what if you're running more than 16psi boost?


Unless I'm being thick

Maybe you or someone else could shed some light on this if you know?

Cheers

I will check mine for you tonight!

From memory though, it has a plastic connector thing, and one wire that goes into it, but I think the connector links to all of them!

So now that I've removed my original factory Airbox on my 2WD Sapphire I just pull the "R" hose of the Amal Valve then and letting it sit there venting?
Cheers guys and sorry about the thread ressurection :P

If you've removed the std air box and have an air filter, just leave the one that goes to the air box (R) without any hose on at all!

Cheers smidsy
Yea mate, I've ditched the original airbox for a K&N Pod filter with polished trumpet.
Would there be any benefit in me welding a fitting on the trumpet of the Pod filter so as I could then re-run the "R" hose off the amal valve back to the new pod filter mate?.
Or is it just as happy sitting there bleeding to atmosphere?.
Cheers again

TBH mate, I'd leave well alone once the trumpet & filter are happy and in place. Not worth fucking around with IMO. And top tuners certainly do not tend to disagree!
