I recently bought a 1972 GMC 1500 with 350 A/T and everything that goes in the engine compartment was piled in the bed. I got her all back together (I think!) and have a steel line that I can't figure out where it goes. Looks like it must be for fuel or fuel vapor but I can't figure out where it should go.

It's my first post to this awesome forum, so lets see if I can attach a picture.

Thanks, Sixty9. I ran 5/16" fuel/emission hose like the novice that I am. I'll make the swap.

Cheers!

Glasses on = vacuum line to transmission
