Default pcv breather hose

Hiya Tim.
Your pcv breather should go into the underside of your air filter.
Do not attach it to a direct vacuum below the throttle blade ie:base of carb or brake booster vacuum port.
If you fit it after the throttle blade you will have an excessive amount of vacuum, drawing too much oil through your pcv.
you will also have unmetered air being drawn into the manifold which will result in a lean running fuel mixture.
And you dont want to run your engine lean.
