Which hoses from the ecu need connecting up to it, and what ones blocked of?

Also does the needle valve go on a certain way around?
When you install the needle valve, you will also need the small tee piece that came with the Dawes valve. The easiest way is to just take all 3 hoses off the solenoid.

Pull off the long one that went from the turbo to the solenoid, remove the small green damper and fit the hose to the air filter resonator. Put the needle valve on the other end of that hose. The air filter resonator is the other end of the short hose that’s on the solenoid and it shouldn’t matter which way around the needle valve goes.

Then fit the small green damper to the hose that comes from the vacuum pump (the one that you repaired recently) and connect the other side of the damper to the vacuum side of the Dawes valve. Tee off that to the turbo actuator and also the other side of the needle valve and it’s done.

When it’s done, there should be no hoses left on the solenoid. Blocking the solenoid ports is optional. I do it just to stop any debris from getting into the solenoid, but it will all work ok without blocking the solenoid ports.
