need help with a amc 304 engine part
 

i have a 78 amc 304 with a stock intake manifold.....right next to the
carb on the intake manifold there is a plate with 2 metal fuel lines
coming out of it.....they make a couple loops inside the intake
manifold and come out again.... one connect to the carb where it says
"rich/lean", the other line connect just to the rear of that......can
any one tell me what this part is call and/or where i can get
one.......the lines rusted through and broke....

I think you're talking about the choke heater?? It's used to open the choke
when the engine is hot.

Re: need help with a amc 304 engine part
 

the top ones should come out of the plate. I think one of mine rusted and I
was able to remove it from the plate and install another easily.
IIRC they should be like brake lines, one will have a compression fitting.
You might be able to bend some new ones easily.

See if they come out of that plate easily.
If you need pictures I think that I have a spare plate that I can take
pictures of it.
later,
dave
