Hi gang...
The small hose connector of the Anti-Run-On valve which connects that valve
to (what I believe to be) the inlet manifold has broken off (from the
ARV). Consequently the hose is dangling and 'sucking air'. If I put my
finger over the end of the hose (where it should connect to the ARV), the
engine idles smoother. Here is my question: is the Anti-Run-On valve
really needed (other than to satisfy Uncle Sam during the 70's emissions
insanity) or can I just cap the hose off? This would leave the opening to
the ARV (still in place) open. Any dangers to leaving things as they
are? Or should I replace the ARV?
BTW, I am heading off on a lighthouse tour with the Detroit Triumph Sports
Car Club tomorrow. We're heading to the eastern coast of Northern Lower
Michigan. Should be a blast. About 22 cars are making the trip for a long
weekend.
Best regards,
Blake Discher
