Actually, car just got here from Michigan in November. It was my Dad's and we have been working on it long distance for about 30 years. Car came out of Missouri I believe. Looking at the other thread, this is the same part, same issue. Spring in side, no check ball and filled with old gunky oil residue.
Interesting, taxi was mentioned in the other thread. We did research and we believe this engine is a taxi motor as well.
So, on a factroy engine of this vintage, where would that pipe normally go or any idea where I would find one of these? Being wide open, certainly sucking a lot of fumes from crank directly into intake manifold, lean conditions possible unless over compensate with needle valve
