I purchased a nice 74 2.0 the previous owner installed a single progressive carb because "fuel injection is crap"
It ran OK but when we installed the stock FI, it ran poorly. I set up a vacuum gauge and it was only pulling 5 mmhg at idle. Not Good! After checking for vacuum leaks we checked valve adjustment, tight! It now pulls 15 and runs great. Brad
