help with '79 F250...

Ok well my dad bought a F250 Ranger awhile back, but there was something messed up with the carb. I got that fixed and screwed it back into place...now there are a bunch of hoses and things and i dont know where they go? does anyone know where I can get detailed instructions on where they go?

Hello & welcome to FTE!

May I mention to please put the topic in the title.

This helps us know that the actual topic is and it aids other users when searching this same topic.

I know have to assume you mean vacuum hoses and you need to know where they all go ?

Topic : Vacuum hose routing.

I need all the info you can give me on the truck.

I know it's a F250.

Engine ?
Transmission ?
49 state or Calif ?


Is there a white sticker on the passenger side valve cover ?

Its probably a Chevy, that why you can't answer which engine it is. Its not as easy as you want it to be, it could be one hose or it could be six hoses. So how about that engine size. And next time just be specific on what you need to know or what you have done to the vehicle recently so we will have something to go on. If you cannot name or figure out the names of the engine parts that you are looking at, maybe you should take it to a mechanic. I'm not being rude just honest.

Mentioning Hoses and things really doesn't cut it

All I can say is good luck. Even if vaccuum hoses are disconnected it should at least start, maybe not stay running, but should start. Maybe you have a problem besides hoses??
