Default 76 fuel tank connection

Hello again...replaced the fuel sending unit in my '76...also changed out all flex fuel/vapor lines ...I have 2 flex lines on passenger side that of course hook to fuel sender (3/8" and 1/4" I believe)..I have one flex line on drivers side that hooks to fuel sender (1/4" I believe) along with fuel gauge wiring to sender..question is I have another 1/4" connection off drivers side of fuel tank that needs to hook to something..It is molded right onto tank and is beside fuel sender....Please help...Thanks,Pete

That might be the line to the vapor canister. There will be a hard line on the frame, that runs up to the front. If I'm right, the vapor canister will be under the brake booster on the driver's side.

However, if a previous owner has removed the vapor canister then you need to cap that nipple and use a vented fuel cap.
