On my 59 Apache with a 235 6 cyl. Replacing the fuel pump, the vacuum lines for the wipers have been all cut off. Any diagrams for where the 5 lines on pump go to ??? I know the fuel in & out... the vacuum ports have been capped off. I know the wipers share vacuum with the intake manifold.

Any ideas .....

one vacuum line should come from the manifold and another goes to the wiper motor, not clear why there'd be 5 rather than 4 lines [are there 5 fittings on the pump?] - see Dennys pics here - do you have the "tin can" reservoir on the driver side inner fender or the firewall?

if you'll be driving in the rain regular you'll be much better off finding an original electric wiper setup than keeping the vacuum ones, even with the fuel pump "boost" - if you're not planning on being in the rain much, the double acting fuel pump is wasted effort, I'd bypass it, plug the ports
