There isn't one single test that is going to prove an engine is good or not. You still need to know where to hook up for checks allowing vacuum to continue on to whatever it was being sent to as well, T tes User Nov 26, 2013, 9:41 AM Post #3 of 4 (1035 views) Re: vaccum readig Sign In thank you and God bless. Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Nov 26, 2013, 10:00 AM Post #4 of 4 (1033 views) Re: vaccum readig Sign In Welcome of course. Vacuum info is still good for testing and diagnosing things. Find or verify exhaust restrictions as a double check, intake manifold leaking on poorly sealed engine. Bouncing needle for bad valves - other stuff all around. I can't post it from a paper book but it's good info still for several things as said. Right up to is there a vacuum however slight at an oil dipstick tube on some indicated PCV system is working. Handy is the pistol hand pump with the gauge and assortment of adaptors to put it in line or test vacuum diaphragms etc., T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
