I'm helping a friend smog a 76 914. I have everything connected and working except I don't have the tubing that bolts to the firewall and goes to the muffler. I have placed a wanted ad for the tubing.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-4253-1247205723.gif) Question: The muffler on the car is not stock but does have a CAT ( looks like a bursch exhaust with a CAT between the two mufflers) and the appropriate sensor in the CAT. However, it does not have a port to bolt the egr tube to the muffler. Does someone have a picture showing where this tube connects...I'll have to weld a flange. Not to sure if it goes on the CAT or on the muffler???? Can't tell from picture perspective below. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-4253-1247205930.jpg) |

Derek,
Thank you for your help...your pictures clarify the location. I went ahead and made the egr tube from the firewall to the muffler with the proper flanges. Now, I belive I'm good to go to the DMV and smog station. What is the likelyhood a stock, low mileage 76 with FI will pass the emissions test? I normally just go to the "Test Only" places, but if I'm going to have to fiddle with the ECU knob and timing to get it to pass, then I better pony-up for the full smog station. Thanks again, |
