Seems someone on one of these lists was looking for a vacuum advance unit a few days ago? There's a new one on eBay now - don't know if it's the right kind that was being sought, but here's the link

Hello gang, The original designs for vacuum advance used a port on the carburetor that was connected to a small opening in the throat of the carburetor. At idle, that opening is almost completely cov

Hi Rich, You probably don't want to hear this ;^) but methinks you need to match the dizzy to the port. My '69 (18GH HC engine) has a #40897 dizzy and is connected to the rear carb. According to the

This is interesting. My guess is that you might be onto something. Also, there may be an adjustment (or our of adjustment) on the the accelerator pump on the Weber. My Ferrari 308 uses four DCNF Webe

On both the DGV and the DCOE the pump jet is calibratable (changeable) the 'squirt' of gas you get upon accelerating relies on both quantity (pump jet) AND duration (backbleed ) of the 'squirt' the p

That's what I was getting at. There are lots of different # 25D4 dizzies around. Sounds to me as if you want the #40897 and carb port, based on your statement that you planned on "spirited driving ar
