Does anyone have a diagram (or picture) of the correct way to connect the vacuum lines on a 1978 KE30? I took the carb off to rebuild it (and yes I labled the hoses and carb before I removed it) but I'm not sure if they were ever connected correctly.

 

Also, is there anything I can use to make a gasket where the carb meets the manifold? My rebuild kit didn't come with one

 

Thanks

Go to an automotive joint and ask for some gasket paper. it'll be a sheet of black stuff, like tough cardboard. Smear a thin layer of oil on the base mating face of the carb and place it on the paper, and you'll have the outline of the carby face to use as a stencil. Cut it with a stanley.

 

No love on the vacuum gear though, mines too old for emissions gear!
