Failed CO emissions - all controls removed - where to start?
To throw another kink in that set up... The afm has a weighted sweeper vane on a contact pad that figures air to fuel ratios. With that one mounted horizontal instead of vertical what kind of accuracy can he expect from the weighted sweeper vane?

the pcv is connected under the intake to the block, iirc. The valve cover hose feeds the aar then the into the throttle body.

Distributor Conversion
Is it specific to the L28 cylinder? Maximas and pick-ups? Or the L20s as well? Thanks Pop's Z! Those mounting bases are getting hard to find, fyi.

Lost my brakes.
With it running does the idle go up when you push the brakes? That's a sign of a bad booster.

Check fluid levels and look for leaks when you go to pump them.

You should also make sure the middle rotor is centered to the stator. Easy to do and they get out of whack. I was looking and "Blue" popped up! So thanks again! Now I won't do the whole @yomamma's.

The gauge reading will be the best thing. Should be 32 or so psi. I'm curious as to how it will react considering how tight that thing is sealed up at idle. Once the afm opens up it's breathing but that takes some pedal. My guess is the idle will go through the roof but I'm either right or dead wrong so it may drop? That big phillps head with the spring is your idle adjustment. It's behind the distributor cap, towards the windshield.

It should go on one of the plugged ports on the driver's side intake manifold, down from the fuel injectors. Looking at the fpr though I think its plugged off too. You have fuel IN and OUT then that rubber plug up top, that's the vacuum line in my opinion. You're missing the charcoal evap cannister too. Any realitives in another state you could register it through?

That's the return line back to that adjustable fuel pressure regulator by the fuel filter. Kind of cool stuff done to this one as far as simplicity, sucks for your Son though as he tries to pass smog.

A simple visual improvement would be add a hose from the valve cover to the throttle body, removing that open air filter on the valve cover. $.02

Post a picture of this. I think it's some kind of FPR but I don't see a vacuum source as Chas said above. One hose is straight out of the rail then that thing then returns to the tank,

I used a deep well socket, 10mm I think, to get mine down. Flat side up I think? It's been awhile.

My urethane Xenon made a huge difference on my '77. My high speed worries were the wiper blades lifted at about 110 on the speedometer. That's where I lift. ?
