Few issues Options

[Defgeph]

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

it would be important to note here that the gauge is reading -9.9, not -99, there is a decimal just like when you read boost (i assume you have yours set to read in PSI, like mine, jeff)

that wouldn't make much sense though....

-9.9 KPA is -2.9xx in/hg.
Which isn't even close to what an engine should read.
If you're only pulling that much vacuum, your engine wont' even be running most likely.
:shrug:
dunno, I don't have the gauge in front of me, nor am I a physics/math major.

-99 makes sense because vacuum gauges normally read down to 30 in/hg [negative].
If it is reading that, it just means the gauge is reading [incorrectly] to it's lowest reading.
