Re: ignition ping when vacuum added
I'm confused the picture in Holleys installation instruction say the port in the metering block is "Timed spark vacuum source, Connects to Distributor advance system". That's were I have mine connected. I just read Richards download and will try it.

Re: ignition ping when vacuum added
Don't be confused just hook it up to 'Full manifold vacuum' before doing any of the procedures.

Re: ignition ping when vacuum added
The instructions are for a distributor that requires a "timed spark vacuum source".

Re: ignition ping when vacuum added
Richard.......your article is worth a lot of $$$$$$ ,thank you for this great gesture !
I build a fair number of these distributors and dial them in to run well on average but as you have so eloquently pointed out an average setting will in all likelyhood leave room for fine tuning. When we visited Ron last summer he told us about you . Gracias, Charlie ny |

51- Merc, Thank You and everyone else who answered this thread. I never saw one of those two port distributors.

Re: ignition ping when vacuum added
Had one on my '73 Ranchero. Was about the first year Ford used them in an effort to meet the new emissions requirements.

All through the design and building of my car I enjoyed sharing everything I learned or dreamed up that could help the next guy: "aluma-peas," setscrew advance range adjustment, plug wire looms, four-barrel tuning, my "road rig," my homemade distributor machine, T5 selection and installation... MAN! I've had a lot of fun! |
