I've been trying to find the reason my 1500 Midget was running a little lean. Here is what I found.
Timing 8 Advanced
Compression #1 140 #2 140 #3 140 #4 145
That all seamed fine but when I did a vacuum test it was zero?????? I sprayed everything I could find with wd40 and found nothing. So I keeped looking and I found the u shaped tube that go to the egr valve was rotten inside the white heat rap. But I still get a zero reading if I go to the vacuum nipple for the vacuum advance. If I go to the intake manifold I get a 15 reading. Are the vacuum ports in the carb plugged?
