Anyone know this? Presume it's into the top hose and out of the bottom but do the hoses just pull off?

Yeah the hoses just pull off by hand.
I think on newages you'll need to run 2 wires from the pins on the boost controller to the battery to open the solenoid. You can then spray some carb cleaner through either hole.

Yes they do have the green plugs but unlike the classics the boost solenoid does not pulse when in the test mode
