The Idle vacum can be an indicator of the condition of the engine.Most vacum guage boxes or manuals will give a Trouble shooting guide. Timing plays an important factor in correct vacum readings so m

I have to disagree here. Engine vacuume is the result of a purely mechanical situation of RPM, and throttle opening. (This assumes that there are no vacuume operated devices in use.) Poor timing can

If I interpret you question marks correctly, it sounds like you have found the vacuum leak - - through the PCV valve (no guts??). Maybe the DPO took the guts out so it could keep up with the excessi

Absolutely correct. In fact, you just described my Old 65 Alpine before it melted a Piston. That poor tired engine had such little draw through the carbs, that it was dam difficult to start when it w
