Re: Tuning carb with a Vacuum Gauge

I'm sorry but that gauge is freaking hilarious. The guys on the space station said your vacuum is just under 22 hg. No matter if it works though!

Hanging under the hood of the truck, it looks like one of those clocks we used to have in school (45 years ago). You could see it from the back of the room. Every agonizing minute of it!! :m6:

Well it fixed the vacuum leak but, it did not fix the trans problem. Clinebarger suggested a few things that basically said its time for a trip to the trans shop. I broke the tachometer while replacing the wiper switch. I ordered a new one. Once it gets here and installed, off we go to visit the tranny boys!
