Ah well
Bodge one
I appear to have *ahem* misplaced *ahem* a vacuum hose when rebuilding my engine and was wondering (simper, simper, knowledge sponge simper) if anybody could help me....
On the vacuum unit on the distributor there are two nipples. I know that one wants to attach to the small nipple on the left hand carburettor which is under the air cleaner when it's fitted.
Where does the other one want to be connected to?
Does anybody actually have a diagram for where all the pipes on a bog standard naturally aspirated 3.5 V8 go? I have a horrible feeling I've connected stuff arse over tit and Haynes isn't actually any damn help at all with this one.
To be fair the car was running, albeit with a misfire. Then I put any load on it and it stops. Never to go again. With something that was either steam or smoke coming from the distributor.
I have just had to pull the dratted thing into the kerb on the starter and as it's within 1/4mile of home and I only have roadside cover the RAC won't touch it.
Anybody got any ideas? This one's worth a beer for successful help.
Also, if there's anybody around Aylesbury way can give me a tow, that's worth at least several beers.
