Heading to the garage now to start the install and my main, unresolved-in-my-brain question is if i need to hook up the vacuum line that is on my current stock distributor, on the 123. |

I bought a carb and 1.8l BT version from a member here used. I have not installed it yet. Until last night I hadn't looked at the documentation. After, I have more questions NOW than I did before. It says "boost retard" which is KICK ASS for blown or nitrous injected stuff. Its posted KPA range is 0-100. It can't see boost! As for which vacuum source to use, they suggest the "vacuum line from the carburetor!" Most carburetors have both manifold and ported vacuum ports on them. Those are some piss poor instructions IMO... The advance curve shown in the first "Beauty" picture is textbook "performance" for a vehicle running a base timing of 15 degrees. The advance curve plots in the instructions are TRASH! Maybe it's me, maybe I'm reading em wrong. More (new) questions for me... I need further education! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ninja.gif) |
