The vacuum hose that goes from my distributor (in my '74 2.0) to the throttle body, is missing. Is it required? What's the purpose of this hose? Must adjust the timing somehow? If I replace the hose, what impact will it have on how my engine is running?

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) And for '74 there shouldn't be a port on the throttle body for a hose. (like '73) if you have one it would be sucking air and you'd have a high idle. -Mike D. |
