While doing some checking on the rebuilt motor on the 64 I checked for vacume on the line coming from the left side of the carb going to the distributor. There is almost no vacuum at all to feel. I put my hands over the snorkels and saw no change in the rpms of the motor at all. Well no wonder the thing never had any get up and go.
Sprayed water around the intake but could not see any change in rpm or hear and water being sucked in either. Could not get any water on the lower side of the intake to check for leaks.
Yet with both snorkels sealed off you would think one could hear air being sucked in somewhere. Any thoughts on what to do next. The carb adjusting screws have little effect on the way the engine runs. The motor is hard to keep running at first start up, have to keep playing with gas pedal till engine warms up.
