I'd offer that it's a good idea to completely remove the vac canister if you're going to use a vac dizzy w/o the vac. If you leave the can in place, you can get more timing jitter from the vac diaphram flapping around undamped and varying the timing randomly. Plugging the vac port helps some, but removing the can completely is the best thing to do. --- Keith Park <topnotch@nycap.rr.com> wrote: > Actually, its probably the least desirable one.
