VACUUM HOSE INSTALLATION - 1.7L 914 (1972-73)
There is variation between the air filter set up for the “early” vs “late” 1.7 engine. The easiest way to identify which you have is to check for the head ventilation ports. If your 1.7 has these, you have the E heads that are made for this application.
Both cars have the charcoal canister in the front of the car. The hose diagram is identical up until the hoses enter the engine compartment.
Tools & Hoses Required:
- Hose cutter pliers or cable cutters
- Need list of hoses and descriptions. I.E. Hose 9.0 x 2.5. This means the hose ID and wall thickness. So this hose is 9mm ID and14mm OD. OD is not critical as they do not use clamps.
