A 1973 VW Beetle with an autostick transmission can technically be flat towed, but it's generally not recommended. Flat towing can cause damage to the transmission since the autostick requires lubrication from the engine to function properly. If you must tow it this way, ensure the ignition is in the "on" position to allow the oil pump to circulate, but consult the owner's manual or a professional for the safest towing method.
It depends on which distributor and transmission you have. The stock distributor has one vacuum line going to it. An autostick transmission has one line. If you have a manual transmission and a Bosch 009 distributor like most people do, you have no vacuum lines.
