actually i found out a better way to install the tube without cutting any hose .....
remember theres 2 hose connect to the intake cover ? one big one small ..... find out the small one .... unplug it ... then connect the vacuum tube into that head .... tat place will get more accuracy reading .... ^^

Hey guys, im getting a vacuum meter from ftzone too and i need some guide connecting the hose. Im driving wira 1.3 carburetor so need to know where to tap the vacuum hose.

I know got one hose connected to the bottom part of the air filter and the front part of the air filter inlet pipe. I dont see why the air filter need vacuum. Is it because to suck air in kah? I remember last time when i installed open pod air filter(powerflow), that one vacuum hose was unattached and i had to blocked it off if not my engine would have a rough idle(rpm goes up and down).

If i should tap from there, should i just unplug the vacuum hose to the air filter or should i leave the hose attached to the air filter and add a t joint?

Thanks!! :)
