Hi All,

I just restored tne engine compartment of my 242GT but can't figure out where all three lines to the carbon filter go (of course I didn't take notes).

Two lines connect to the top and one to the bottom. On the top a small one comes from the gas tank and I have the other top one routed to the intake manifold. The larger line on the bottom is the one I'm confused about. I'm thinking it should go to the manifold instead of the other one, but then where does the other one go?

All the manuals I've checked are sketchy about this.

Thanks

Les

Hi Les,

Is this the same sketchy stuff you've been looking at? This makes it look like the bottom one hangs down into nowhere...

Hi Art,

I did find that one. So I've decided to let it hang. It does have the plastic tube inserted, but it's not as long.

Got it tuned up and on the road this afternoon

Thanks for the response!

Les
