Hi,
I have a 74 2.0 FI that some of the emission bits have been removed. While gathering the missing bits I noticed that the schematics for the vacuum hoses show that the vacuum ports on the distributer hook up to the ports on the T-body. Only one problem..I only have 1 vacuum port on the T-body and 2 on the distributor. anyone know why this is? Thanks SW |

there's two types of vacuum. above the carb's throttle plate, and below the plate.
one supplies vacuum when at idle and at lower engine load (below), and the other supplies vacuum when the throttle is opened up (above). one port is located either just below the carb or along the intake runner, and the other is just above it at the carb. |
