hello everyone. i have a 1974 maverick grabber and i am currently trying to find "california emission" vacuum diagrams. i have a couple chiltons and a stack of factory manuals for this car and i still can't find a complete diagram. i have a feeling it has something to do with california emissions. to top it off, the previous owner "re-routed" some of the lines, so i basically have to start from scratch. i need heeeeeeeeelp! thank you. tim
tim, welcome to the board. as you know by now, most vac. tubes have been redone to the owners liking. do you have a certain problem or you just wanting to get it back to a stock set up? someone here knows but if they remember or not is the ??? here is a pic. of my motor when i did my 302 swap. see the vac. hose down the carb?...frank...

Hey Tim, I have a 75 Comet with all the California smog hooked up, where are you located? You could come by if you are close or I could take some pictures. My car wont stay this way for long...
re:vacuum hello. the engine miss-fires at idle speed. i have gone through and replaced just about everything that i can think of. the only things left i have to replace are the ignition coil & a new set of electronic points. i have eliminated that problem before on other cars by completely re-doing the vacuum lines. i was hoping that would make a difference on the maverick. if anybody has any suggestions please let me know. about the '75 comet, that sounds great, i live in san diego . where are you? i have a 250 with the 1 barrel carb. if you have a different engine, i don't know if the lines will be the same or not. thanks for getting back to me folks. tim
