I don't have access right now but is the sticker still on the underside of his hood? I gives an overview of how the vacuum hoses are routed.

Look on eBay for a 1979 LUV service manual. That is what you really need to get it right.

Good luck!

Go straight to a weber, stock carbs are tough to get right even for the best mechanic.

Get a manual ASAP, you wont believe how much info they have. Here is a couple on E bay

The search feature is your friend. There are a couple of diagrams in this post.
