Best place to cross the rocky mountains

None at the truck stop, carquest gets a look and then I'll just eyeball it in. Vacuum is just easier

I used to be able to set timing by ear to within 2 degrees of non smog spec when the majority of tuneups required a timing light to check timing.

Kid at the counter had no idea what a vacuum gauge was they ended up having 1 behind the counter with the OBD2 connectors. All the ones he could order in were all about the same $30. Added a tube of grease for all the electronics to help keep moisture out

14" was the most I could get out of it, running 700-750 rpm idle instead of 600, just to help it out a touch

When I first saw this thread start I was going to make a smartass comment like "30,000 feet on the way to Vegas for hookers and blow". Now that I see all you went through I have the same answer but seriously and not being a smart ass.

Thats why I bought 2 more at a second hand store last week. Thinking of hanging one permanently on the dash. I had an 84 Impala with an OEM indash vacuum guage that read "Fuel Economy". I have at least 6 or 7 now. Living at High altitude I like using them to help set timing on my old stuff too.

use the antique motorhome

I thought you were going to use an actual antique, not a modern one

Nice, you made it!

Happy to be here.

It's been 2 or 3 years since we removed the sage from this section here and it is now full of just grass and way easier to work with cleans up real well.
