I cannot find in the manual the proper readings for the vac lines. Any ideas on what is acceptable for an engine with 135k and a little upper half work? If the air cleaner is off should I block off the one in back that goes to the air cleaner housing? I heard 15 lbs steady for the main port and once I get to a certain rpm on the motor what should the vac advance read? Thanks in advance gentlemen. Another compression test today as well.
