Hi Listers,
   Been reassembling after replacing a water pump on a 76B with full emission
controls and despite my disassembly drawings, I missed one.

        There is a triangular Bracket (part #19, Moss catalog, p. 15) from
which the 'air pump adjusting Link' (part #18) attaches to the air pump. Now
the right hand bolt hole of part 19 acts as a spacer in the generator mounting 
bracket,
but I cannot find, nor intuit, nor stare at the assembly and figure out
where the left hand bolt hole of part 19 attaches. A quick view of a similar
car would solve this, but the members's cars of the club I belong to have all
removed this item. 

         The sad fact is that by this time next year, I, too, will have
removed much of the emissions in a carborator switch. But not yet...

Can someone with a stock emissions setup with a 75-80 B take a look and see
where the left extension of part 19 attaches to.

TIA,

Bill
