    sounds like a heater tube that should go from the exhaust manifold (right under the carb sorta) to up around the choke. it heats up the choke so it will open.( i think) i got rid of mine and put in a manual choke.

    Scott is right , there is a small hole in the exhaust manifold that the tube gos into. The tube might be too rusted to use any more but it wouldn`t be too hard to make a new one out of fule or brake line IMHO.

    I`m 64 miles west of ST Louis on I44 . Realy , there isn`t too many people around here that show the "stars and bars" but it reminds of a realy cool 69 dodge charger (y) and I like eagels :coco: .
