Hey Glitch666:

Need a little more information.  Is this a 1974 2300cc with M/T and without T/E and A/C?

Thanks,

Its a 2.3 with a manual and no a/c.

Hey Glitch666:

Here is a figure of most of the lines.  Hope this helps.

Thatnks for that but I still want to know exactly what that thing does. Also is some one could point me to a good guide on timing the car, as im gonna replace the timing belt soon.

Hey Glitch666:

In the figure it shows it as item 9D473 which is a valve assembly
for the exhaust gas recirculation system.  I am not familiar with
a '74 but this system recirculates a small amount of the system's
exhaust gas into the incoming air/fuel mixture.  As a result, this
is supposed to lower combustion temperatures and reduce nitrogen oxide
emissions.
