We have pretty much been working non-stop to try and get this car to Okteenerfest.(need to leave Oregon in the morning for Georga) but now we need some help with figuring out what to do with the return lines that go to the charcoal filter system on a car that has dual carb dellorto 45s. Can anybody tell us what to do with these?

Most people just leave them unhooked. If the fuel smell from the tank is noticeable, you can extend the small breather line down under the car (like they did on the 914-6).
If you want to make it work, one plastic line in the engine bay goes to the cooling tin or impeller housing (depending on what year your parts are from) and the other plastic line goes to the air filter. To add it to the air filter, you have to drill a hole and get a pipe adapter. Lots of air filters come with them, but you could probably find something on McMaster as well. |
