Subject: CTO Switches


I had a conversation the other day with a guy from work who restores old 
Jeeps for a hobby. He was telling me how badly the AMC 360 engine will run 
when  the CTO (TVS) switches go bad, especially the one that controls the 
spark advance.  These are the thermostatically operated vacuum switches on 
the intake manifold and apparently they do go bad often.  He printed me out 
a list with cross referenced parts, which judging by the number of 
manufacturers are readily available, even from the Jeep dealer.  I see that 
this is a part that we do not have on our list.

Has anyone replaced theirs and if so, with what???
