the purge valve i just read gets both ends capped..my lap top must have skipped that part while i was under the hood as for my other quistion i still help
you don't need to do anything with the oil filler hose. you can run it to the top of the air filter, but i just left it open. only thing is when you put oil in you gotta hold your finger over the hole so oil don't go out of it.
If I remeber correctly, you need this part to vent your crank case to avoid the "lung musterd" and rust in the oil tube, following the rat's nest removal tutorial, I think you need to T the bigger hose at the bottom of the purge valve and one end goes to the oil tube nippo and the other one goes to the fuel bowl vent. The smaller nippo on the bottom of the purge valve goes to the third nippo on the bottom of the carb from left. And the top nippo on the purge valve connect to one a bit left from the idle screw at a slightly higher location. I would suggest you to download a copy of the tutorial, the link can be searched on this forum.
I am not a mechenic and learned everything on this wonderful forum too, hope this helps. Oh, by searching for "crank case venting" you can find a whole lot of good response.

now i think i have a vac leak of course it my be beacsue my car is cold and hast run in a week untill i removed the emmsions and tryed to start but when it ran withthe choke out it studdered alot
Well, when I first removed my rat's nest, I capped eveything, left the oil filler tube, dizzy, and fuel bowl vent open, it ran great just like that, perhap you can try this to pin out where is giving you the trouble.
the place I had constant problems was where the ACV was... Thats until I got the sexy Block off plate from Racingbeat but the only problem is there is only 2 bolts holding it on. Besides that if you are having a vacuum leak you should be able to see where the problem is looking with a trouble light at the base of the carb

There is a solenoid (spell?) at the center of the carb on the driver side, the big openning to its left is the fuel bowl vent. The T is right at the bottom of purge valve, the big opening too, so one end goes to this vent and the other goes to the oil filler tube.
