From the begining of my swap I've had low vac issues. I replaced hoses tightened everything up capped off holes.
I eliminated my AC and power steering. I have the hose for the AC idle up capped. Would I be better off capping the two PS vac lines?(current setup) Or should I connect them to each other with a hose. I'm close to having full vac, but its still alittle off. Second thing, when I slow down and put the car into neutral the RMP's dip way below normal idle. After running at like say 650-750 rpm for a few seconds, it raises back to 1000 where its been since the begining of this project. Sometimes the car stalls, I looking for some suggestions or ideas. I've checked timing, its set at 10d's. Thanks guys -------------------- ![]() I will return one day. |

QUOTE(alltracman78 @ May 7, 2007 - 7:39 AM) [snapback]554901[/snapback] A boost leak won't affect idle quality at all. A vacuum leak will however.. That sounds like an oxymoron, Jeff, what is your vacuum at idle? it should be around 18-20 Hg with stock cams. I only have 10 Hg vacuum at idle but thats because of the cams. also if your going by the marks on the crack to determine timing it might be wrong. my crank pulley was around 4 degrees off from tdc. But it does sound like a boost/vacuum leak ( Depending if you boosting or at idle -------------------- |
