So, I have been slowly tinkering with my Lark and trying to get it running steady and reliably.
The original 2 barrel carb was rebuilt/regasketed but all the moving parts were worn out.
I couldn't make it idle no matter how many adjustments I did to it. I already had a 4 barrel intake and a new Edelbrock so I enlarged the holes in the manifold and mounted everything up.
The thing that you see circled was hooked to the back of my stock 2 barrel stromberg WW.
I figured it was some sort of PCV valve so I hooked it up to my edelbrock (front) too.
It ran better right away but it wouldn't idle at all still. It bogged down and flooded out.
I thought maybe the coil was weak so I replaced it too. It was a little better but still wouldnt idle.
I pinched off the big vacuum hose that goes to the thing that is circled and it immediately started idling on its own.
It idles really well now.
What the heck is that thing and what do I do with it?
