Ggmac, the points were set to .015 but will make sure they didn't slip or change. I have an accurate McQuay Norris vacuum gauge about as old as the flathead. I will hook it up to the manifold vacuum and check after work. Also, I really like your idea of the water mist!!! I will be trying that tonight too. BTW, vacuum at idle is just over 19" but will check when it is missing and let everyone know.
