A few days ago I was following a few posts about the way a vacuum advance works. Some of what was said, just didn't sound right. Vacuum advance is one of those things I have to sit down and figure ou

I'm not sure if I said one of those things that "just didn't sound right" <g>, but I think Barry glossed over the point that most if not all auto vacuum advance systems do NOT advance the spark at i

The bottom line is that at idle, the vacuum advance is pulled in by the high vacuum in the inlet manifold changing the timing. When you open the throttle, you let in more air and bring the vacuum in

Perhaps the question really relates to where you are getting your vacuum. In my car the vacuum advance is pulled off the carb inside the butterfly so that vacuum and advances increases with throttle.

Exactly right. On every car I've ever owned (including TR3s), the stock setup is for the vacuum advance to be connected to 'ported' vacuum. The port in the carburetor (or throttle body) is positioned

Now you've got me confused. If your car has the vacuum pulled off the carb, inside the butterfly (between the engine and the butterfly?) the vacuum will approach zero as you open the butterflies and

Maybe a little ASCII art will help (if you view it in a fixed pitch font <g>) : Throttle closed -- intake X manifold --^-- port Throttle open -- / / intake X manifold / / --^-- port As you (maybe) c

Well, no. By taking it out of the carb its between the butterfly and the air filter it is controlled by the butterfly. Now, what your saying is not altogether untrue, but for these purposes it doesn'

Ducking (for the moment) the issue of whether "most cars do" or "most cars don't" <g>, I can say with certainty that the stock setup for your TR3A : 1) Uses 'ported' vacuum for the vacuum advance, w
