How may wrong things are in these pictures, 75 1.8 L-Jet non catalyst and no air pump Options

[914rrr]

I've been stocking up on hose diagrams to help sort out my non-smog 75 1.8 L-Jet engine bay hoses. There also seems to be some discussions as to whose vacuum hose diagrams are the correct-est. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

BTW, I do have the charcoal canister and bracket.

I snapped a few pics of my engine bay and methinks there's a bunch wrong with the vacuum hoses in there.

Any input, as always, is much appreciated.

Is this the thread you're referring to ?

For starters, I don't have any hose connected to the retard side of the distributor at this point, and the hose from the oil filler goes straight to the air filter.

Q: What does the hard tubing that goes to the gas tank evaporative chamber look like and where does it pass through the body on both ends? At first glance I don't see anything like a hard tube on either end. My main motivation is to significantly reduce or eliminate any "gas smells" coming from my 914 so my mom will let me park it in her garage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

so far i have only done the hose diagrams for the 74 1.8s.

------
you have a 75 1.8.
the 49 state 75 1.8s had a hose set up virtually identical to the 74 EC-A engine cars (caifornia). there were very minor differences that were to do with hose couplings and a different design decel valve. buts that all. you can use the EC-A diagram in the link above.

the 75 1.8s had the evap charcoal can in the engine bay.
it was in a different position than the engine bay cans on the 74.
instead mounted off side of battery tray.
the hose hook up is as per the engine bay cans on the 74.
the only hose leading back to the fuel tank is the small diameter fume hose and it runs through the central tunnel of the car. there are no hoses in the side sills behind the rocker panel on the 74 cars from late Nov 73 onward and the 75 cars.

to note -

there has been some discussion about the correct way to connect those hoses to the charcoal can.
it has been established that VW and Porsche altered and revised the plumbing of the hoses to the canister when they moved it to the engine bay location. this is not speculation - it is supported by the emissions warranty diagrams that were originally provided with the cars along with the owners operating manual.

EDIT - if you have a 75 1.8 (California). it has an EGR. but it sounds like yours does not have that emissions gear on it. if it did and you needed to know how it worked i could probably do a quick sketch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
