I have some new silicone tubing on order to replace vacuum lines, will have soon, i figure once that arrives i will clean out the metal parts of the tubing on the vac system with wire pipe cleaner brush and some carb spray, also sometime on that day test the vac system integrity itself with the pump etc etc. what do you think? carsinsc New User Sep 21, 2010, 10:19 PM Post #27 of 28 (1646 views)      Re: working with vacuum gauge   Have you done a compression test on this motor? If it was overheated, you may have low compression causing your problems. A leak down test would help verify wether your valves are sealing properly. Start with the basics before you throw a bunch of money at a problem that can't be fixed by just replacing parts. Poor compression = poor running.
