Sam, what year is your car? I have a 76 and the vacuum fitting on the rear
carb is on top and is used to run the EGR valve. It generally has no vacuum
at idle. The front carb has a fitting at the bottom. This may be the one you
need.

I have no vacuum coming from the rear carb to the vacuum retard at the
distributor. I have verified that the diaphragm is good and the breaker plate
does
move. This was discovered yesterday while trying to slow the idle down some.
I slowed the idle by retarding the spark, but, in hindsight, I don't think
this was the proper way to act. I think that I will hook up my Mityvac back
up
and, with full retard at the distributor, re-time the enging and just live
with the faster idle until I (or one of you!) can get to the bottom of the "no
vacuum" thing.
