Hello again! Can someone identify hoses / lines in pictures? Metallic line (taped up end) was like that when I bought the car. Is it a return line for gas? It goes in the rear and "disappears" on top of fuel tank. Is it needed in carburetor system? If so, where it connects? Second is that bundle on hoses. One of them is the hood light, that much I know. Are they AC related or something like that? Thanks guys! -Finn
The taped up metal line, is fuel vapor line, from top of gas tank that connects to fuel vapor charcoal canister (which mounts onto the inner fender, blue color) and then flex tube connects to side of air cleaner. It was an emission thing, to prevent fuel vapor from escaping into the air........this line can be used as a return line, if one wants to go to Fuel Injection, but the check valve assemble on top of gas tank must be drilled out. This was not a big deal, as I did this on my 74 when I converted it over to FI. I believe the rubber lines are for AC unit, think a couple of the lines connected to the AC/Heater control switch, that was mounted on the cowl, just above where the 2 AC connections come out of the firewall.......... Actually, your first picture shows where those rubber vacuum lines connect..... David
Thanks David! Youre right about those hoses, connection is seen on other pic There is one hose that is bended to be closed and isnt been connected (at my time). I think it is also AC related and not necessary at this point. I might put AC working at some point but not now. That fuel emission thing....I think Ill leave it like that for now. Maybe it can be used as a tank breather and routed to different place.
Like I stated....not a hood light wire. A factory hood light wire would attached directly to the battery and was powered by a mercury switch in the light socket.
