pretty much everyone of them will only reach so far and only plug into one place. strech out the harness and start looking where the plugs end at.

yeah we got out the book and everything, i'm just bringing it to this place called custom auto and this guy is gonna look at it. i'm out of ideas and sick of ****ing with it, no more mods. i talked to alot of people and they said that those stock vaccum advance carbs are a nightmare, so im just gonna let him get it running nice like it did before and leave it at that and just enjoy the car.
