Greetings Gearheads and Patrollees Worldwide,
Eddy the Eagle has surveyed the reason for the vent lines running from the water proof distributor to the air filter housing.
They are to keep the electronics or points dry and reduce the potential of corrosion inside the distributor.
Also, on an unrelated topic he noted since these old motors don't have a PVC valve they discharge extra extra valve pressure through the oil filler cap...so better make sure you have an old style oil filler cap or you will blow your valve seals.
Patrolling with dry distributor internal,
