found this old thread.

Page 8 is interesting.

Interesting comparison.

Webby now scratching his chin and working out how he can beat the 3.2 manual times. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Lol still on my hols til the weekend so will be looking for some answers to queries when I get back.

One for now though. . .

What should I expect to see from a vacuum gauge on an omega at idle?

When I return going to use this to look for exhaust blockages and all redo compression test also just to be sure

Anyone?  :)

Looking online I'm informed that an engine producing between 16 and 21 inches of mercury is good though it's more important that it's a steady needle. Then I can also use this to look for exhaust blockages which is holding it at 3k rpm and the vac should rise slightly and not receed
