79 turbo vacuum hose help
« on: August 28, 2017, 04:23:31 PM »
I picked up a 79 4 cylinder turbo and I'm pretty sure the vacuum hoses have been messed with.  The mustang won't accelerate smoothly when you step down on it at high RPMs.  Does anyone have some pictures of the original airpan and what the connections look like?  I want to start there.  Someone has glued them into place but they do not look original.  I picked up a service manual but their are about 11 or so hoses coming in and out of the carb and or returning air to the filter and the manual as far as I can tell only address a few.  Any help would be great.

There are a couple of guys over at four eyed pride.com with similar cars and have worked on documenting the vacuum lines.
