Default 74 Headlight Vacuum Schematic / Diagram

Can anyone tell me where I can find a 74 vacuum schematic / diagram - on the web - or a troubleshhoter's guide -
I have read that the canister on the 74 is located in the front - and I believe this is where my leak is - However - I would like to go through the entire system to be sure -

Brad,
Be sure to open a separate topic with the update when you find the source of your leak.

I've had similar concerns on mine. I never was able to pull vacuum using my itty-bitty Mighty Vac pump on the front crossmember tube thingy.

My leak turned out to be the headlight modulator relay thingies - now the headlights go up and down just fine.
