Default Carb diagram?

Probably a stupid question, but does anyone have a basic diagram for a Quadrajet carb, and what each of the vacuum hose connections are for?
I don't think I know what they are all for, and don't want to connect up something incorrectly!

I have a '73, not sure what year the Qjet is from, but most are alike, yes? (until computer controlled ones and high smog configurations, which mine is not!)

Many thanks!
Paul

But some of the other hoses are easier to see.

Here is a 1974 L48, should be very similar to the '73. Well, perhaps similar enough to be useful.



Good luck... GUSTO
