M42 cable management and AC lines???

[amcink]

I'm having problem connecting the M42 plastic cover for the cable management to the blower motor cover since I have 2 AC lines in the way (on the cover) - I want to keep the AC (it is a must in Sacramento)
Any suggestions?

My guess is you have an 87 and what you think is AC lines are actually the fuel cooler lines. They run across the firewall and coil around the ac lines by the passenger hood bracketry to cool the fuel, granted that's only when the AC is on so the hp gain didn't seem worth it enough for them to bother putting them on any other year e30. I personally deleted them from my fuel system. They don't affect the AC system at all either so you can still run that.

This sounds about right (I do have an 87) I see that the rubber hoses at the back of the hard lines goes under the car.
Where do I plugged them at (below the car)?

Are these the lines that connects to the charcoal canisters? I remember I have other lines I cut from the M20 that goes to the rails

Or is it the ones that were for the fuel before now goes to the charcoal canister and then to the fuel rail?

I'm getting confuse now

If I remember correctly it's the return line that runs up and over to the AC just find both sides of it and bypass the hardline and remove it.
