Re: My 1968 C-20 Golden Anniversary Project
Some interesting works on vacuum system:
1) A canadian friend gave me the advice that the spigot must be in the pipe- done. But than the porous hose became a leak. The switch point of the TH400 was rised dramatically, the switch over was very hard and the oil became foamy (Optimized for WOT (Wide Open Trottle)- Repaired and know now that hose, pipe and vacuum switch are working fantastic.
2) During the investigation found out that the vacuum advance in the distributor is dead too. Bought a new one AR23 (good advise from Gregski and Rich weyand here in the forum). START 5-7 inHg, Max. advance distributor degree 7.5° , Max inHg 11-12.5.
3) Some paint work for the new engine and changed the ugly blue distributor cap against a black one.
