Olds Engine Choke Stove and Lines Going In Dont Fit

[78chevolds]

I have the 260 with the 2bbl carb. I noticed the steel line from the choke to the choke stove on the intake was rotted. I bought that line as well as the line from the back of the carb. I then realized the existing stove lines going in were rusted in the choke stove.

I bought a new choke stove and the new lines do not insert. The diameter is too small on the stove to plug in those lines.

Both the lines and the choke stove were listed for my car.

Any ideas?

little ghetto innovation but cut a slit in the end and squeeze together with pliers till it fits,then either just put it into the stove or mix up some jbweld and dab a bit on the end to seal it up better if you like
