No, the T-3 engine is not sealed tight as the others, it has a closed cooling air system. See the big rubber boot coming from the body to the engine and the breather, if still there, for the fuel injection is tapped into that air also. The car should have a electric fuel pump up front under the fuel tank, if the fuel injection is removed this pump must be replaced(by-passed and the return fuel line blocked), to use carbs, with a mechanial fuel pump or one of those low pressure electrics. Sounds like you got one that has been buchered... Stick with it, it can be sorted out and fixed. Good luck with it. Phil __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
