Vacuum wiper ,fuel pump Questions
While doing the restoration on my 1957 Thunderbird I eliminated the vacuum wipers and went to the electric.
Now that I and getting ready for the final paint ,I am doing a few last minute tasks that I have been meaning to do but they have slipped thru the cracks. I have two stainless tubes that were meant to go from the fuel pump to the wipers. One is fitted into the brass block at the rear of the intake and goes across the top of the engine to the fuel pump. The second goes from the fuel pump up and across the top of the engine and ends at the rear of the intake. There is no fitting on that end as a hose is to be attached and go up under the dash for the wipers. My questions is this. Since I am not using the vacuum line for the wipers, is there any need to even run the two lines. Can I just put two short pieces of hose on the two outlets on the fuel pump, and plug them? Will doing so damage the fuel pump? There is a plug in the brass block now where the one line is to go fuel pump. Thanks ,Patrick |
