It goes into the carb on the driver's side of it. If I remember right, it's the one that comes from the right, toward the bottom of this photo, and connects to the carb below the solenoid in the middle. This is on a '79, so your's may be different. You'll get a lot of suggestions to just get rid of it because they don't work, but I still have mine and it works.

yeah, just toss it. I recently did, seems to be pretty much worthless. Do a search if you want more info on what it does.

i know what it does, and considering it often far below freezing here, i thought it would be handy.
