I have a 1973, 1.7. It was idling low/stalling. I noticed the red hose in the picture is no longer attached on the one end. (Not sure if the two are related, but it's a starting point)
Can anyone tell/show me where it attaches? Any help is appreciated, it saves me the time of looking it up. Regards, Terry |

If the hoses have enough slack, you can try trimming the ends past where they're cracked (regular maintenance). One should check the fuel hoses frequently as well.
Another member out here with a '73 1.7L was exhibiting the same issue a couple weeks ago. We sniped off cracked hose ends, adjusted dwell & timing and got it running, but also found the MPS' diaphragm was shot (with a Mighty-Vac). The member had already set up an appointment with a shop to perform a valve adjustment, oil change, etc. the following week, so we stopped where we were and he'll let the mechanic tackle the rest. |

Thanks again. You gave me helpful advice. Time to start troubleshooting. |
