Another great video...for some reason we had a horrible time putting the throttle body back in after a starter motor replacement. Struggled for a few hours and gave up but my buddy was able to put them back in less than 2 mins the next morning :-)

[@RuslanVideoFilms]

I had a hard time too! that darn air intake hose, lol

where does the vaccuum line from the tube flapper go to? I accidentally disconnected both the front and back flapper tubes and dont know where they go. theres two "changeover valves" which one goes where?

[@RuslanVideoFilms]

The larger changeover valve vacuum lines go to thinner lines that should be under the respective valves. Unfortunately, the best solution I can recommend is guessing which smaller line the larger lines get connected to - if you mix them up it will idle poorly and you'll get a CEL.
I took a look in the parts diagrams but the closest I got to finding them is the parts diagram for the changeover valves and vacuum lines - didn't find what they connect to - part 17 - www.porscheatlantaperimeterparts.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=474594&ukey_product=3813225#9
I disconnected one of my flapper tubes too, on accident, but only one so it was easy to see which line it gets connected to czcams.com/video/gzuTL8Ymnrk/video.html
