What's this
Do you guys know what the little orange fitting is. Looks like there were little hoses going there. It's a 1978 inline 250. It's right below the lifter cover and above the starter to the right. Want to know if I can take it out or what ?? Posted via Mobile Device |

If you no longer need the EFE valve for emissions testing/inspection and/or cold weather driveability, you can remove that TVS and plug the hole with an appropriate size pipe thread plug. |

Re: What's this
hey, straightsix. i have a 292, and i removed a bracket from the passenger side that connected from the top motor mount bolt to the alternator. now it wont fit. i noticed you dont have that bracket. just curios if you ran into the same problem or if the 250 did not come with bracket. also what blue is that?! i bought a chevy blue and its not the same color. sorry to bump the thread. just dont come across straight sixes that much around here.
