I removed the breather on passenger side. Had a hose going to back side of carb. From what I saw that's the pcv. I'm replacing the breather. Can I replace the hose with heater hose or something or does it have to be specific. The drivers side was missing the oil cap/breather...I looked it up and a hose suppose to go to the air cleaner. I'm missing the air cleaner as well
Rubber valve cover gaskets should I use gasket dealer or no. I want to run the engine today but dont wany to wait for the gasket **** to cure


the parts in the picture I'm not sure what they are but I'd like to replace them. Top left corner.

 

Any info? Rear hose goes to the brake booster. But I'm not sure what the other port is for...vacuum line? If so where does it connect to

 

They're just vacuum lines. Use whatever engine grade hose that fits. It would be a good idea to put sealer on it, but it's not 100% necessary.

 

Where does the vacuum line run to? Like I said one line goes to brake. But the other port is open. Never had anything connected

 

so it looks like one goes to your brake booster, one goes to your carb spacer, and i would just cap the other one if it doesn't go to anything.

 

The other one didnt go to carb spacer

 

 

Just try following the hose, it might have been for something the PO had installed under the dash. It might not be needed at all, but you will not know for sure till you find the other end.

 

There is no other end. It is open ports. The only hose coming off goes to the brake booster. I'm just trying to see what's missing and what I need to replace In order to get her decent. A few parts were missing so I'm trying to figure it all out

 

Ok, I got ya now.

 

Besides the booster hose, I think a vacuum line from the carb to the dist is all I have on mine. Some models had vac lines that ran to the snorkel. It operated a small metal flap (or valve) to let heated air into the snorkel and the breather. This aided in a quicker warm up. (A small step into the emmisions world).

 

I appreciate it. I do have the vacuum line from dist to carb. Guess I'll cap everything else I see.

 

I looked at mine, and it seems mine just has the one hose that goes to the brake booster. I believe it is just a vacuum port, and it looks like a previous owner has added some extra parts to it for some reason. I would just remove all the extra fittings, and connect your brake booster up to the port. Worst case scenario, you can always put it back.

 

I appreciate it. With that sorted out. I still need a air cleaner and the breather for driver side. But my biggest xhallange will be the choke and throttle. Some of it was connected but seems to be missing things.

 

It's always a pain piecing together parts when you never got to see how it was before taken apart.
