I followed the MazSpeed vacuum tutorial carefully and ran all new hoses and T's...my car did not have the 'purge valve' attached...So, I am to order one when I get home from this trip I'm on..
I did the work, air control valve block off plate and all, minus the purge valve set-up.(the #3,#4 vacuum pipes open)..fired the car and it start up and run with my foot on the gas, quit at idle tho...I quit for the night....tired.

the next morning I capped the #3 & #4 vacuum pipes (on the carb spacer) and she fired right up & ran pretty great! with a good idle. pulling strong on the secondary carb valves... I can feel them kick in now! the carburetor and the crankcase is not vented properly to that valve as well as those #3 & #4 vac outlet pipes...so thats next. as well as time for that new radiator.
Thanks
