75-78 vacuum hose routing, California spec.
« on: June 22, 2023, 09:13:04 PM »
I PROMISE I have spent the last hour searching for this on the forum! I need an Epson Salts bath for the tension!

I found VZ's 80-86 lead. Some other relevant leads, still no go on these specific models.

Doing a deep dive on the intake/carb/tuneup replacement and will be replacing the ported vacuum switches.

1978 K10, 5.7/TH350 4bbl, dual tanks/canisters. Please ask for any additional info you may need.

Any guidance would be appreciated. THANKS!

There is a treasure trove of information in the Technical Forum.  Did you peruse the 1978 CK Repair Manual, pages 6E-6 (Fig. 6E-8) and 6E-10 (Fig. 6E-16)?   8)

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!
