Any ideas what > this is so I can take off the duct tape and put it to use? This is how it's set up on my Fuel Injected 71 SB. There should be a hose connected to the elbow. The hose is routed through the front of the engine compartment to a container (I'm not sure what this is called or what it does). Then a hose comes from the other side of the container back into the engine compartment to the air cleaner. I hope this helps. Neil Gray Chapel Hill NC neil_gray@villco.com
