I have a nearly stock 1.8 L-Jet with all the smog controls removed. The l-Jet distributer is the dual vacumn type- both hoses attach to the throttle body.
Last two times the vacumn wimped out, I replcaed the can. I'm wondering if there is a better way to go- given I'm not running smog controls. Are there issues specific to the 1.8 L-Jet ? Thanks, jim Attached image(s)

Get a Mallory Unilite from Jake all setup with the correct weights for advance.
Close the ports on the throttle body with caps and enjoy the ride. Rich |
