I have an aircleaner box that still has the squirter manifolds and the fuel line that feeds them.
I thought it would be cool to leave them in and mock up the connection. Does anyone have a pix or know where the feed line for these connected and how was it routed?? Could not find it in PET or the shop manual. From what I can learn, the 911 one was connected to a T and a solenoid that was in the tunnel. What about the six?? |

The more I think about the cold start circuit, they had to have a thermo-time switch associated which would trigger it on at near freeze temp. and turn it off after time/temp was satisfied. That might appear on the schematic (heater and thermostatic contact) and likely located on the passenger side (914-6) cam chain cover like MFI/CIS engines. The solenoid supply had to be after the fuel pump. Would make no sense to be in the tunnel. I suspect the tee was very near pass. side carb. My car, perhaps being a late 1970 build has no extra/unused wires in the engine harness for such circuit. The mystery continues.
