One vacuum line goes into it from the carb...the other line goes to the canister on the air cleaner snorkel for the heat tube door. Does it block vacuum when it gets hot so the air door in the snorkel closes? When these go bad I assume they let vacuum pass all the time? Is there an inlet and an outlet side or can I hook up the hoses to either nipple?
