Hey, for all you early 911 owners out there, this one's going out to you! I need some help with hooking up the carburetor preheater hose on a 1967 911. When I got the car, it had a mess of hoses, and I'm trying to get everything straightened out. I understand part of the hose connects to the air intake tube coming off the air cleaner box, but where does it go from there? My car is equipped with an early A/C unit, too, so the air intake "trumpet" is positioned so it is pointing on the left side of the engine bay, versus the conventional right side. So if anyone can give me some pointers on which connection to hook it to, I'd be glad
Thanx a bunch! P.S. I would take pictures to show you what I mean, but it's too dark out ![]() |

Hello
67 ? I think your snorkel must show to the right side. At the passenger side you will find a 22mm pipe coming out the frame. Run a paper hose from there to the snorkel flap. All the way around in the rear from the engine bay. If you have the newer heat exchangers they will have a outlet on the driver side. Then replace the left engine shroud to run the later heat up version. Grüsse |

Danke Roland! The reason my air intake trumpet is pointing to the left side is because my car is equipped with an ealy A/C unit, and the pump (I belive) is on the right side of the engine bay, so the factory installed the snorkels pointing west.
By the way....when I checked the size for the tubes, they measured 30 mm versus 22. http://www.angelfire.com/mi2/tylermerkel/911project.html |
