Newly acquired 914, 1976 2.0. Has missing vacuum hose. Does anyone know what it hooks to? This causes the car to idle high, I put my finger over it and the idle dropped from 1700 down to 500 rpm. Is this causing a lean fuel-air mixture? Thanks

You guys are great! That JeffBowlsby link even tells me the size hose it needs! The deceleration valve is there. What is strange is I got the car from a classic car dealer in Houston where they did a tune-up on the car before I bought it. The car takes a while to warm up, like it's a little lean, wants to die when backing out of the driveway. After it warms up it is fine. The tires are a little tall not sure if that is contributing 205/70-15.

if it is anything like an L jet the warm up weak idle might be due to the AAV (aux air valve). ie its closing too quick or not opening at all for extra intake air when the engine is cold.

This sounds about right, I bet it's not opening at all. It dropped to 500rpm Ice cold when I covered the hole. Maybe I can take it off and soak it in something.

You have the right idea. If you remove it it's very simple to bench test. Connect the lead to the positive terminal and ground the body of the AAR. It should go from fully open cold to fully closed in like 5 to 10 minutes. If not, yeah, clean/soak/etc. Watch Ian's video.
