L69 Dual Snorkel Temp Vacuum Switch

Hello all,

I searched around for info on this but haven't come across a clear answer. I recently repainted my newly acquired L69 Dual Snorkel but didn't think to take a note on how this part goes on so hopefully you guys can tell me. I just want to know if I have this Temperature Vacuum Switch (I believe) on right? I know the vacuum hoses are on right so I just need to know the orientation of the TVS. Thanks

-Ryan

It appears it is installed correctly, with the element inside the air cleaner housing and the lines routed properly. I believe the connection of the lines is not a significant issue since the TVS is a simple valve with no checking or vent action, but you'll know as soon as it gets warm.
