Fantastic, hose is gone. I've put >100 miles on with the new carburetor and it's running great. I finally have a consistent idle on this car.
Since there's some interest I've changed the title and I'm turning this into a general thread for the wagon. I've had it for a year now, 3rd owner, 130,xxx miles. It's spent most of its life on a cattle ranch in Eastern Oregon, so practically no rust. A survivor for sure. Original paint. AC is installed but does not work. I had to remove the actuator when installing a new throttle cable for the Weber, but I've kept it in case I ever want to attempt reviving it. Digi-dash doesn't work but pretends to turn on every once in a while.
Now that the carburetor issues are resolved, it's in great shape. It's a super fun car, and I made friends with half the neighborhood when working on it in the street. Turns out she had quite a few secret admirers
If I had the resources, I'd be putting an EA82 5-speed transmission on this. The current one is alright, but kicks out of 3rd if you're not careful. My understanding is this is the standard for these 4 speeds.
Unfortunately, once I get everything fixed on this I probably have to sell it. The late-pandemic financial situation is growing increasingly worse, and this is not my only old car. I'm going to try to hold on to it if I can though!
