INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
BEFORE REMOVING OLD CARBURETOR
1.
Determine if the distributor vacuum port is timed (no
vacuum at idle) or full (vacuum present at idle).
With the
engine fully warmed up and idling, pull the vacuum hose off of the
carb and "feel" for
vacuum by putting
your finger on the
vacuum port
(See
Fig. 2)
.
If your
distributor has timed
vacuum advance,
hook the vacuum
hose from the
distributor up to the
passenger side vacuum port on the carburetor. If it has full vacuum
advance, hook it up to the driver's side port.
2.
The stock steel fuel line must be converted
to fuel resistant
rubber hose. The stock steel line will not connect to the Performer
Series Carburetor. Use Edelbrock Universal Fuel Line Kit #8135.
This kit contains a filter, neoprene hose and fittings to adapt 5/16"
and 3/8" stock fuel lines
(See Fig. 3)
.
