Re: Another smog thread

Those are coolant temp vacuum switches. They switch vacuum to/away from things until the engine warms up or before the engine warms up to temp. They run various “extra” systems like the heat riser in the exhaust or keep vac from the distributor vac advance until the engine is warm.
Add to your list the vac line for the transmission and the short vac line to the rear pot on the carb. There is probably several rubber lines that run to a charcoal canister also.
But yes....you can get rid of several systems off the engine..
