Does anyone have a diagram of the vacum lines on the motor. T

For a starter... Let me see if I can get a more detailed view.

There is an early style vacuum system...with the carb mounted air cleaner...and a late style, with the remote air cleaner and a governor...both the systems are detailed on the following pages:

Early: http://www.m715zone.com/vb/view.php?pg=early_vent

Late: http://www.m715zone.com/vb/view.php?pg=late_vent

Both of these pages, and many many more, are linked from the Online Maintenance Manuals page linked at the top of every page.

Guys, a question...

If I delete the vacuum wipers, can I plug both holes at the fuel pump and remove those lines without doing anything any harm?

[brute4c]

You can remove the lines but why plug the holes? The pump will still be trying to work and now be operating in a closed system...trying to create vacuum in a tiny area like that might stress the vacuum side of the pump...
It is possible to get a civilian pump that only has the fule side of the pump and run it...no vacuum side at all.

[ColoradoSpringsRob]

Better to just leave the lines alone, and allow the wiper side to just remain open to the engine compartment then?

Thats what I did...
