Emissions...PCV Valve and other questions

It's an 82 GSL, and since I've broken the good ol' purge valve I've got to go the PCV Valve way. So forgive me for being a mechanical moron or maybe it's cuz it's in the morning and I don't want to think.

But anyway, where do the tube from the center housing goto on the intake manifold? I'm a little lost there, do you mean airbox cleaner or the manifold itself? I figured the airbox cleaner, but what one should I put it on? And for the PCV, what hole on the airbox cleaner does it go on?


That's the line from the middle housing, wondering where on the airbox cleaner it goes to. Yeah, it's T'd so that the charcoal can is still in use


Just wondering where this goes to, it's part of the saved solonoid, was a little lost in the writeup as to where it went.

Thanks in advance

Well, I got it all together at it's still is idling just as nasty as it was before. Barely staying alive at 400-500 RPMs. Although it accelerates fine, except for a moment where I had some weird surge, but I think that was my clutch as that is on it's way out as well as the fact that my slave cylinder is in bad need of replacing. And I should now mention the exhuast tone is very odd sounding now. As if the car was powered by a very large weedwacker. Not very attractive if ya ask me.

Oki, Weird as hell. I can't seem to find any leaks, but as I went out there a few minutes ago, my car was idling fine at 700-800 RPMs. Although my exhaust tone is still got a more metallicy sound to it. In fact the tinny noise is even louder than usual. I took it for a drive and the idle was still normal, although with a more metallic tinny sound.
