Turning to the vast knowledge and experience on this board for a little help. Looking for two things. The first would be a pic or diagram for the electric choke and kick down linkage area of the carb. Its on a 73 with the 2 barrel motorcraft carb. I think all the parts are there just doesn't look right. The second would be if anyone could point me to a vaccum diagram. I have power steering, power brakes(chevy conversion), the points distributor has been replaced. I don't know what else you might need, but any help would be appreciated.

I don't know how correct this is, but on my 74 with 2bl Motorcraft carb I only run two vacuum lines. One is from the throttle plates barb on the bottom pass. side of the carb to the vacuum advance on the distributor. The other runs from the vacuum tree on the back of the intake manifold to the barb on the front of the carb just above the drivers side idle adjust needle. Don't know exactly what the second one runs, but if I unhook it and plug off the barb my motor runs like crap. Maybe runs the power valve or something, I don't know, but when it is hooked up it runs nice. Pretty much everything else is capped off, but not all 2v motorcraft carbs are the same either.
