I know I am missing some parts & hoses on the fuel tank for our 1972 914 (1.7L with carb).
I don't have any hoses of any of the three nipples on the expansion tank. I don't have a carbon canister and I am sure I am missing others hoses. I don't have a clear understanding as to where hoses should be connected to. I guess that the expansion tank nipple(s) are to be connected to the carbon canister, but looking at some sketch found on the web, 2 nipples seem to be connected together and seem to go down as a drain. The one near the filler neck seems to be the one connected to the canister. Is it like this? For the carbon canister, the sketch shows 2 hoses that I assume have to go to the back of the car to sent the fumes in the air intake. Probably a stupid question, but why 2 hoses? Also, being on carb, where should I sent these hoses to? Anyone has a good sketch showing the schematic of these hoses for a carb engine? Thanks  |

The bottom part in yellow is for cars without a charcoal canister. The expansion chamber connects to a "T" that connects to the filler overflow that goes under the car.
