Can anyone tell me where exactly to the vacuum hoses go to the 1950 F1 windshield wipers? There are two connections on the wiper motor so which one goes where? And which side of the switch goes where?

Thanks Fordbarn

I'm not sure of a '50, but should be the same as a '52. I can take a photo of my spare motor if it will help.
Only one hose connects to the motor, the other 'connection' is actually an inlet to let air into the motor.
The motor is activated by a cable (like a choke cable).

What I am asking is where the hose that comes in from carb. Which side of wiper motor does it go on? drivers side or passenger side?

52 is different I think. Looks to me there is another hose going from the switch to the wiper motor also

The line from the carb attaches on the passenger side of the motor.
