Howdy everyone,
So I think the next project I need to address is the horrid fuel smell. My car is a 1972 with twin Weber IDF's. Nothing is connected in the frunk. My plan is to order some cloth braid hose from Belmetric and reconnect everything up front, as well as possible a filler gasket. The engine compartment is a different story. Where is the pressure tap off the fan housing? I can't seem to find it. And then, what have people used to cleanly attach to the generic IDF filters? I went on a date today (first date in 23 year, newly divorced) and the woman complained of nausea from the smell. I had planned on doing it soon. Now it is on the front burner. Last question. Is it worth getting a later plastic canister and recharging it? It seems like it is easy to find canisters, but not the corrcect mounting hardware. Will the later one sit correctly on my early tank? Thanks for any help Dan |

here it is on a bus.
you can see its a block off the side of the casting. i think they drilled it out and pressed in a tube sleeve to take the hose. so you might have the block on the fan casting but it has not been drilled. |
