Re: K 551 Weber kit
 

I did not take the computer out of the loop. I did leave the vac. advance
at the manifold and will try moving it. I'll try the computer thingie as
well. Also, I haven't road tested it much yet, but the comment about it
using alot of fuel seems to be accurate. Bill, you suggest reconnecting
the charcoal cannister? I didn't think I would be losing that much for
vapor, but.....
I didn't pay much attention to the cannister hose routing when I disabled
it because I planned on abandoning it. Any suggestions for me on how and
where to route the three hoses? Also, the vapor line at the top of the
carb, should that go to the vapor canister? I did disconnect the EGR valve
vacuum line and plugged it.

The Weber has two vacuum ports, one for the ign advance, the other (further
up the throttle plate travel) can be used for the emissions equipment, incl
the canister. The kit comes with some fittings you can adapt for the PVC
system, too.
