I have a 305 TBI that I believe to be all stock. I am going around and checking all my vacuum lines and the one that is meant to go to the air cleaner and then to the little attachment on the arm of the air cleaner is not attached to anything. There is a vacuum line from the little attachment on the arm, to under the air cleaner but then nothing on the other nipple at the air cleaner. I have attached a photo below.
Is it right that the pictured empty vacuum nipple on the air cleaner is basically a pin hole? If so, which side is meant to be connected to the intake, and which to the attachment on the arm of the air cleaner? Because the other nipple is not a pin hole like that one, it’s a normal vacuum line attachment
Had to go pull the air cleaner to get a photo. Looks like you have the hard plastic line going from the nipple underneath to the vac. motor on the snorkel. What you appear to be missing is the rubber vac. line running from the other nipple to the base of the throttle body.
