This is all very helpful, I really appreciate it, thank you.
FYI, here's a photo of my car taken the other day.

Thanks for the reply, here are a few engine bay photos from just now.
I believe it's in the registry, serial 03968. I bought it in May '78 when I was just 18, believe it or not.
Thanks again for the help.

Asking for some advice...

I have a '68 KR which I've owned for many years. It did not have an air cleaner when I bought it. In the mid-80's I found all the pieces to reconstruct it.

Recently retired now, I've been driving the car more regularly and am finding the air cleaner and S-tube seem to move around a lot. I never can get it to lock in place, and inevitably the snorkel drifts very close to the starter relay. (I've seen sparks a few times!)

So I am wondering what I'm doing wrong ... or if the parts I bought 35 years ago weren't correct KR parts?

Any help/advice welcomed.

I'm new to the forum so apologies if I'm doing this wrong. Attached are a couple of polaroids of 3968 as it looked when I bought it in Minneapolis in May 1978. Also attached is a recent photo of how it looks today.
