RE: [alfa] euro manifold question

[Mark Battley <M.Battley@xxxxxxxxxx>]

On my 1973 2000 GT Veloce (which I'm faily sure is original) it connects to
an outlet under the al elbow where the breather hose from the cambox to the
airbox joins to the cambox - I've always presumed that it is a drain for any
oil buildup in the breather. My doesn't have a vacuum advance on the
distributor.

It is supposed to go to the distributor. And you are right it is a vacuum
device. Some dists have this little tube attached.
