Hi All. 1969 Cougar that 351-2V Windsor has the “heat riser tube” or " Choke Tube" dangling off the back of the carb. No idea where on the motor it’s supposed to connect. Does anyone have a picture? Is the fitting snapped off? There is a small hole on the passenger side of the block that the pipe fits into, but I have no idea if that is where it should be or not.
Thanks.
Here’s everything you ever wanted to know about the Thermostatic Choke Tube assembly:
Lots of hints for installation, and great images. Here’s the link to Classic Industries reproduction version of the assembly:

Here’s another link to the FORDification.com forum on the install of the choke heat tube on a Ford F-250 360 engine with a Motorcraft 2100-D carburetor. Interesting images and using a NAPA aftermarket repair kit:
