Success!!!!! It seems that the gentleman who said not to use the power brake vacuum port to my pcv set-up knew what he was talking about. Today, without changing anything else, I put a pair of vice-grips on the hose and clamped it shut. The car fired right up, and after about 5 minutes warm up, seems to idle much better on its own, without me having to blip the throttle at all. Denny is definately right, in that it needs a gasket and float kit, but it appears that is all it may need. This is something brand new to me---I never heard of this before, but hey----it worked. Now all I have to do is figure out what port to use for the pcv. There is a large vacuum port on the front of the carb that used to go to the charcoal canister---I have it plugged right now, but it can easily be unplugged and used----any opinions????
