At the any parts store you should be able to find a vacuum gauge. Some have big 
dials, 3", that are both a vacuum gauge and used for fuel pressure. On the TR6, 
I have a 74. the back side of the manifold has a quarter size banjo with a 
large port on coming off towards the back of the engine and a smaller one 
towards the front. 


Fine out first what your reading is first. 18 to 20 is a good range.   Dale

I have read several things about check for vacuum pressure. I am clueless. 
I think I buy a vacuum gauge (somewhere) and connect to the intake manifold? 
Maybe with a T connector so the original hose is connected. 
I am not talking about syncing the carbs. 
Anyone have experience and point me to buying a proper gauge and how to connect 
it?
I have a bleeder gauge with a trigger but I suspect this isn't what I need to 
use. 
Thanks.
