<script src="safari-extension://com.ebay.safari.myebaymanager-QYHMMGCMJR/85e82b1c/background/helpers/prefilterHelper.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> I'm hooking the hoses back up after removing and replacing engine for rebuilding and heed some help locating where hoses should go.

#1: On the back of the air cleaner, the largest hose and the small one below it, where do they go?

 

 

#2: On the front carburetor, there is a little port sticking up between the dashpot and the mounting flange, where does it go?

 

#3: The valve that is on the driver side shock tower that has a line going to the rear of the car, where do the 2 hoses go?

 

#4: Where does the vacuum advance and the #5: small line on the large tube on the block go?

 

Thanks for your help

#4 vaccum advance goes to #2 front carb small port.

 

#3 lower port goes to #5 small line on large block breather tube.

 

#3 upper port goes to #1 small port on right side of your picture.

( The larger hose shown in #1 goes to the emissions air pump

inlet fitting).

 

I think I have that about right.

Fuel from the tank vents into your engine block when the car is off.

When the engine starts, the vacuum changes the path through the valve and vapours from the block are now sucked into the carbs and re-burned.

The fitting on the front carb body is a ported vacuum source. It connects to the vacuum canister on the distributor. There is none on the back carb.

Thanks everyone for the help. I still don't know what to do with the large port on the back of the air cleaner since I have removed the air pump. Is it acceptable to just cap it off?

Yes, just stuff a cork in it. It's wide open to the inside of the air cleaner, PAST the filter, so it can suck bad things into the carbs.

Thanks again, I will let you know when it goes Varoom for the first time!

Thanks again for the good info on hose hook up.

Now, I have a carb linkage question:

Before I removed the emissions "Stuff" from the intake rail, the front carb arm that has the idle screw in it was attached with a rod that went to a vacuum pot on the rail. Now that The vacuum pot (and rod) is gone the arm that has the idle adjusting screw on it (front carburetor) just flops around, what's the fix?

The rear carburetor is unchanged and appears to be operating normally.

I tried to upload some pictures but couldn't find a icon that would allow me to post pictures to the message.

Thanks in advance

Eric, use a zip tie.... preferably one that matches the exterior color of your car. 

I'll try that, does anyone have a picture of this being done to their linkage?

Thanks

Here's my fix for the open port on the back of the air filter box: a 7/8" ID rubber foot for a stool from a big box store.  I stuck it on my drill and turned it down against some sandpaper to eliminate the distinctive shape.  It is an exact fit for the port tube.  On the carb linkage question, the good folks at Z Therapy took care of that for me with a very fine wire locking the two pieces together - you have to look very hard to find it!
