Hi all
I got myself a vacuum gauge recently, got it from an old retired mechanic. I connected it to a spare port on my carb at the base. (Is this ok or must it be connected to the manifold?).
The reading I am getting at idle is about 28 cmHg. Its the blue zone on my gauge which says "Drive" According to the gauge I should be between 45-50 cmHg at idle.
When I gun the motor the needle drops and then it comes back to around the 28 mark.
I fiddled with the air/fuel mixture and timing but the needle does not change much. The needle is also not perfectly steady.
Reading on the web, seem to suggest that my motor is worn out if its giving these readings :oops:
Any advice here appreciated.
