Bob makes a very good point. The vac. hose should be connected to the base of the carb and the PCV valve. On the opposite valve cover there should be either a connection to the air cleaner or a breather.

The vac. hose removes every gas, mist and/or fart that forms inside the crank case and allows it to be burned. The breather/air filter connection makes sure the air being drawn from the crank case is not dirty, filthy sand impregnated junk. ( a little graphic, but this needed a bit of drama, LOL )

Just my $0.02
