Too many hoses

OK, I've already taken care of the wood shed thing, but I still need help. I carelessly failed to document all of the hoses when I removed the stock carburetor from my stock Federal 1979 Mazda 12A 4 speed RX-7 SA22C509155.
Does anyone have a complete plumbing diagram they will share? My workshop manual does not include the sub-zero starting assist hose connection at the carburetor. I've either used it's connection for something else or am just not looking in the right place.

Fixer,

You posted in the wrong location. I moved this thread to the New Member Technical Area. You should get a better response there.

BTW, is there a copy of the plumbing diagram in the downloadable FSM?

No and my original copy of the Workshop Manual does not either.

This may get you in the right direction, it applies to the 1980 model year:
1980 RX7 FSM-1A-Emissions pdf, check pages 29-30.

There is test procedures for the Cold-Start assist system here:
1980 RX7 FSM-4-Fuel Inlet Exhaust.pdf, check pages 7-8

If you need something carburetor specific:
Mazda Carburetor Manual 1979-85

Thank you so much, George. The carburetor manual had the exploded view of the carburetor that shows the fitting I was not being able to locate. It shows tt on the opposite side from where it actually is, but at least I found it.
Regards,
Clyde
