Hi -
Apologies for a v silly question - hoping this will be an easy answer though.
This is a P6 V8 (I'm told a '76 from the specific variation of carb (HIF6 part no's AUD521L and R)) that as you can see isn't in a P6 anymore. I'm an absolute novice when it comes to engines but I'm learning as fast as I can - there are a few oddities to this installation which I'm trying to iron out, and I'm hoping someone can answer them in seconds given the level of knowledge on here!
Can anyone tell me the following:
1) can you get replacement fuel fittings for the bit shown in the red circle (and the same on the other side)? If so do you know what thread it is? I'm tempted to replace the lot with nice new AN fittings but want to get it exactly right ... petrol makes me nervous!
2) all the photos I can find show this pipe going somewhere, but disappearing before I can figure out where that is! What is this supposed to be connected to in the P6 installation?
3) I'm pretty sure this is a super rookie question - what is this cable / hose? It goes from the N/S carb to the distributor.
Obviously anything else anyone can see that looks odd from here, please do feel free to laugh as long as you explain at the same time!
Thanks in advance.
