Vacuum advance

Post by Mjhayes »

I have a single Webber carb in a 2.0 cu engine, have electronic ignition dizzy but no vac advance on it am going to change to a vacuum advance dizzy but can anyone tell me where the pipe attaches to the carb - I’ve looked around it can’t see where it’s blanked off for the vacuum advance

Thanks

It’s a single Webber(empi) I’d imagine - think previous owner purchased from just kampers they got everything else from there

Hi Matt - you might want to look at this around 14 mins in - they point to the vacuum take off . It's likely (and it fact it should be so!) that your take off is capped at the moment as you're not using the vacuum at the moment
