OAI routing from flapper 70 W-30 ??

Think I am missing the inlet on front of manifold. Where does the hose go from the vacuum opener on top of Air cleaner ?

The inlet is a 90 degree fitting behind the carb on the drivers side.

The OAI vacuum is tee'd off the vacuum line from the 90 degree fitting to the air cleaner.

Make sense?

If your talking about the larger hose, that's a drain hose for water.

It should go to the "TCS unit?" located on the passenger's side of the carb. (At least, that's where mine goes.) Hope this helps.

from the port on the manifold it goes to the T up by the breather then to the door motor. the other side of the t goes to the vacuum switch on the breather base by the filter. from there it will go to the vacuum door on the snorkel.
here is a page from the assembly manual.

I own a 70 w-30 and the diagram jensen posted here is exactly how mine is set up. What may not be exactly clear is where the hose connects to the carb. If you are still uncertain I can take pictures of my set up.

Hey, Jensen - where do u get such a clear and precise manual ???????
