Tuning It Up
It is puzzler time again. Here we go.
Years ago, we were all at the garage. And I assigned one of the guys there to do a tune up of one of the vehicles that had come in. I said, "Go throw a tune up on that thing!"
So, he goes to this particular vehicle. After a little while, he comes back and says, "There is something strange going on with this thing. It looks like there are a couple of vacuum hoses going to the distributor. But they are unplugged and I don't know where they go."
And I said, "Well, one must be the vac advance and one must be the retard."
And he said, "No, this one doesn't have a vacuum advance, or a vacuum retard. As a matter of fact, these hoses go to the distributor cap."
And I said, "Well, you must be wrong, because there are no vacuum hoses that go to the distributor cap..."
And the guy says, "Well, these do."
So, sure enough, I walk over there myself to look at what is going on. And I inspected this car and found that there are two spots on the distributor cap where hoses would attach. So I figured out that one of them goes to the manifold and the other one goes to the air filter.
So I show the guy where they go. And at that moment he realizes what kind of vehicle he is tuning up. And he says, "Well, I guess that makes sense now."
And the puzzler question is, what kind of vehicle was he tuning up?
Now, remember this was a year ago. There were thousands of these on the road at the time. It was a passenger vehicle.
