So, I was given a '78 Wagoneer that hadn't run for five years. The PO had done all sorts of electrical "fixing" (read: random connections) and it took a good while to hunt down all the ignition problems.
Now I've got her running, and she idles well in park or neutral, but after placing her in gear, she runs really rough, and needs a lot of gas to stay running. Reading around, most folks suggested vacuum trouble which I've started attacking, but have a few questions.
What is the above hose?
Should this have something in there?
Also, when I yanked the hose off of the distributor, it twisted enough to keep the engine from starting. I don't see any marks on the dizzy, so I'm not sure where to line it up, is there a method easier than trial and error for finding the right spot?
