I finally got around to testing my Vacuum Advance with one of those Brake Bleeder/Vacuum testers. The larger port holds no vacuum and does not move the actuator, the smaller vacuum port holds a vacuum but for a very short time. I assume that this is part of the problem I'm having with acceleration/ deceleration both of which are not all together smooth.

Am I going about testing this correctly? Can I do anything to help other then purchasing a working vacuum advance? Where can I source one of these vacuum boxes?

Thanks,
Dan
