Hey everyone,
Where can I get the yellow retaining clip on the vacuum modulator linkage to the fuel injection pump?
Or am up S#$% creek?
Thanks for any help!

Follow up for anyone with same issue, I used a rubber vacuum cap on the end of the linkage. Not exactly sure what size because I found a bunch of vacuum caps in a drawer but I believe it was the same size as the return fuel lines. Went on pretty tight. Let's see if it works!

Thanx ! .

I've had several of those crumble in my hand.....

Yes vnate, I used a rubber vacuum cap on the end of the linkage. Not exactly sure what size because I found a bunch of vacuum caps in a drawer but I believe it was the same size as the return fuel lines for the fuel injectors.
Hope this helps.

O.K., I was wondering because these are important and without one the car wouldn't be much use .

I'm not hitting the junkyards right now anyways, I thought maybe I'd find one for you .


I'm pretty sure stamped sheet metal throttle rod clips ('Jesus Clips') will work but you'd have to search a bunch to find the right size & shape .
