Charcoal Canister Hose

Post by misszora » Sun Jan 29, 2012 10:16 am

Trying to locate where to put the end of the hose that extends from the left (driver side) of the charcoal canister in my '77. It was marked with tape "left side of engine." :-)

On the Ratwell website it states that it goes to the hole in the tin just behind the ignition coil. Not finding a hole in the tin just yet but when I do, what does it connect to once it's through?

Found the hole in plain sight. Seems odd that the hose would just sit in there.

right behind the coil so you can't see it. Its fresh air off the fan housing.
