Could someone explain the proper source of the vacuum for the vac retard unit. All the drawings I have seen for the 1974 TR6 configuration show the small black vacuum line connected to the bottom of

I still do not understand the physical and operational differences of the vacuum port for advance and retard. Do you know of a source that shows a vacuum vs throttle position graph. I am interested

It's tough to graph ported vacuum vs throttle position, because the vacuum does not depend only on throttle position. Let's try a brief operational description in terms of manifold vacuum : Retard p

Anthony Rhodes asked: Ah, that's easy. One goes forward, the other backwards. :-) I don't know exactly where your vacuum lines tap into the manifold or carb. I assume you're talking about a TR6; my S

Thanks. That makes sense. Actually, I do not have a TR6. I have a TR4A which has vacuum advance, and I like it that way. BUT I have a TR7 with vacuum retard. Actually, iy does not have it active at t

Y'er welcome. Glad to help out and even more glad that it makes sense! I've considered disabling my Spitfire's vacuum retard every so often, but whenever I did before it failed emissions tests. It do

My vacuum port is located at bottom of the front Stromberg on my '63 TR4 .. and interestingly my SUs on my '63 Volvo don't have a vacuum port at all. Carl '63 TR4 and '63 122S directions! Therefore

It's worse than that, not all SUs turn the same direction ! The HS6 for example, turns the same direction as the ZS. Randall
