adjustment to the throttle raises the vacuum 1-2". Very accurate and
sensitive.

No. But, I got over eight million hits when I tried vacuum gauge. I was
hoping maybe you could narrow it down some. But, that's OK.

Snippy little bugger, isn't he?

You're a good man, JR!

Who makes your vacuum gauge?

Not sure without getting up and crawling under the tarp with a
flashlight. Picked it up at an auto parts store...$10 I think. or maybe
JC Whitney (.com).You have to run a 1/8" ID vinyl hose from the guage to
a manifold vac source on the engine.
