Have a stock 72 1.7 I'm putting back together. I'm a bit confused about the dizzy vacumn line placement. I have vertical and horizontal vacumn ports on the throttle body and a port on the inside (toward the dizzy) and outside (away from the dizzy) of the vacumn advance can. What goes where? None of my manuals have a great picture or give a good explanation. thanks..

Jeff Bowlsby has a great pic on his site ,one everyone uses ,the outer vacuum pickup on the dizzy go's on the throttle body as that regulates vacuum dependent on the position of the butterfly, the inner port nearest distributor body is the retard side which I presume is coupled with a port on the plenum manifold ...I'am not totally sure of that so hopefully some will chime in on that because my experience is with AFM (later) Motronic systems ,cheers.
