What am I missing

Can you guys look at these photos and see what I'm misssing. I took off the air filter and I know its missing the smog pump, but is there anything else this engine is missing. Thanks.

The quality of your photo is poor. That makes it very diff. to tell what is going on.

Better pictures will help, but I can see that the rubber line which should go from the carb vent to the charcoal cannister is missing or is disconnected. This can cause you to smell gasoline.

BaronVonAutomatic,

Since you have not received a response to the question of, "That's a 1986?"... it does indeed look to be a computer controlled [a.k.a. feedback] system. They were like this from 1984-1986 and I think earlier in California.

Yeah, it sure looks like mine did.

86wv - Are you asking because it's not running well? I went nuts trying to get mine running right then found a vacuum leak hidden on the vacuum tree. There's an ell shaped tube/port on the bottom of the vacuum tree you might not necessarily see from above.

Also, check the vacuum lines that run to the A/C heater controller.
