Post blower bypass ???

How do you disconnect the blower bypass valve on the '00 Lightning? Full explanation would be greatly appreciated. If not here then can you email the instructions to me?

thanks

On the drivers side engine, you will see the EGR (round and black) right
next to the upper intake. It has a decent size metal pipe that runs down to
the exhaust system. Halfway down, above the fuel rails, you will see a few
vacuum lines and electrical connectors. The boost bypass id the one towards
the back close to the #7 sparkplug. IT is round in shape, and has an
electrical connector that plugs in from the side facing towards the passenger
side, it will also have a couple of vacuum lines going to it.
Hope this helps

It's on the driver side by the third plug back and it has 2 wires and 3 pink vacuum lines, one on top, 2 on bottom. On the side facing the front of the vehicle there is a silver sticker on it with the I.D. of XL3V-9H465. Squeeze the tab on the wire harnass and unplug it.

Twinturbo,
If you've had your boost go to ZERO about half track then you know what I'm talking about. Unplug it and that problem is history.
I ran alday yesterday with it disconnected and no problems. If you run on MT ET's then you can finally do a burnout......
