So i set the plugs to 40 and reinstalled. I then hooked up a vac gauge
and got 18 inches at 1000 rpm but only 6 at idle. The minute I hooked up the vac gauge to the carb the idle seemed to smooth out. I put a different brASS fitting into the carb for the vac line and hooked it up to the distributor..seems to idle nice. It had a slight bog when doing a gentle rev up from 500rpm to 1000rpm, so I retarded the timing and that got better. The engine runs very nice now not really sure why as I still only have poor vac at idle. The vacuum did not change by adusting the timing?? |
