OTOH, the FI dists have excellent mech adv curves and will work well with no vacuum advance at all. [In normal operation, the vacuum advance on these dists only comes into play while crusing at low throttle. It's an economy device, just giving better gas mileage when less power is demanded from the engine.] > I put in the aux air regulator instead of a mech fuel pump for an > added oil breather.

It would if I removed the bi-metallic spring and ran the outlet side to a breather and closed off the inlet side. (I think). I havn't done that part yet. Its real purpose is to close off the hole for the mechanical fuel pump. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
