When this happened to me on my '77 with the 32/36 DGV Weber, I made a blanking plate for the mechanical fuel pump (I was running an electric fuel pump with a pressure regulator) and added a threaded hose fitting and a hose with a PCV and connected it to the intake manifold. At first I ran it to the carb, but that got the carb too dirty. It ran great when I went to the manifold.
