Vaccum pipes, which goes where?

Post by The_blue »

I know one goes on the left carb, one on the tickover mix to right carb and one from the hot/cold air mixer (plus 2 holes on the air filter cover)

But which goes where?

This is from the wiki but can't be right.

The temp guage thing on the filter lid is bypassed.

The carb to advanced makes sence but which goes to the retard and how is the air filter cover ment to look?

Yeah, the picture from the wiki is wrong.

The pipe coming from the retard part of the vac advance module should go to a t-piece, one pipe going to the temp thingy on the airbox, the other going to the balance pipe.
The temp thingy should then be linked to the vacuum valve on the entrance to the airbox.

The one in the picture has been set up to bypass the warm air intake.
