  • vacuum line help

    I had a stupid attack and didn't make note of the placement of a few vacuum lines. Can someone tell me what goes where and what the device that they are connected on the firewall.
    The hoses are orange stripe, white stripe and solid black. Which ports do they go to on the air cleaner.

    Stupid vacuum lines! I've had that problem a few times! There's a sticky for the hose routing diagrams tho if you want to try to figure it out the hard way. I don't remember which one goes where off the top of my head.

      Left to right, port 1 goes to a hose that should be connected to a tee going to the canister (solid blk), port 2 should go to the top of the orange solenoid (wht trace), Port 3 goes to the top of the green solenoid (solid blk) and the orange traced hose should be going from the bottom of the orange solenoid to the FICB near the back of the carb and may still have a brown dot on top and and orange dot on the bottom. it connects to the bottom port.

      Hope this helps.

        Thanks. I'll double check tomorrow. I hooked them up and took it for a 15 mile jaunt with plenty of stop and go's with numerouse turns. Didn't notice any bucking or backfiring or stuttering so maybe I got lucky. Oh and turned up the idle a bit, no more stalling when slowing down either.

          Someone asked that question before. A seach would pull up the answer. Trick is knowing what to search for.
          Another way is to search through my old posts because I was the one who provided that routing, but it says I've posted over 1,200 times. Don't know who you'd deal with that.

            Is there a way to have the search function look for the entire phrase intact instead of each word?

              george: You can try putting the phrase in quotes, eg "phrase goes here". That will do a search for the character string in some search engines. Good point.

                Kart laid it out pretty clear, don't know if this helps or not.
