I was wondering if anyone knows of a source for emissions hose routing for a 1976 LTD 460 that I now have in my '79 Bronco.
I discovered a large ( pinkey diameter ) hose fitting on the back of my carbuerator that is not hooked to anything and is just sucking air. I thought I must have bumped the hose off of the brake booster while working on it, but that hose goes into the manifold.
Any thoughts?
I also have conveniently routed the charcoal canister hose to the windshield wiper hoses. ( neither work ).
My emissions place closed down, and I don't know how close the new place will look at my emission hoses. I'd like to get it to look right before my next E-test.

Thanks in advance.

Yep. This air sucker should be connected to the PCV
hose and routed to the valve cover where the PCV valve
is located. Depending on your setup, the PCV valve
will fit in the center of your oil fill cap, or it will
be in a grommet set in the end of the top of the
valve cover.

 

I have 2 PCV valves, one of each. ( one in the oil cap and one into the valve cover. I have both PCVs routed to the air cleaner cover. I guess I'll route this air sucker to the air cleaner cover so it gets a little of everything. ( fresh air and crank case vents ). Any thoughts on the diagrams? I'l like to get the charcoal canister set up right.

thanks again.

 

If you have the calib. # from the 460 I can get you the info. It should be on a valve cover. Something like 6-07sr10. (thats just a example). Norm.
