Hey FordMan:

Could you please provide some information about the year, engine, carb type and accessories.
This would help in providing you the correct vacuum diagrams.

Cheers!

I have a similar question- Is there anyplace online were I can get these emission control vacuum line diagrams?  My 79 cruising wagon has a diagram under the hood, but the 77 Bobcat Wagon I just bought does not.
The car in question is a 1977 2.8 V-6, W/ AC and California emissions.
BTW- I am new to this group- still learning my way around the site, but there sure is a lot of info here!

PS: I have a pic of the underhood vacuum diagram on the '79 if anyone needs it.

Fordman, do you have to comply with smog laws where you are at??  It could make a difference in how much you can do.  How is the intake working for you???

Hey FordMan:

Here are two figures from Clymer's Shop Manual.  They list the figures for
1978 and later for 2300cc engines.  Hope this can be of some help.
