3.1 SET-UP

3.1.1 Start the vehicle and run until it will operate without choke. When this has been

achieved, turn off the engine and fit the vacuum gauges as follows:

3.1.2 Remove the inlet manifold vacuum screw(s). Select the appropriate extension

connector and screw into the inlet manifold of vehicle, do not overtighten,

finger pressure is adequate.

3.1.3 Repeat for the remaining carburettors (up to four).

3.1.4 Push fit the rubber hose to each extension connector ensuring a good fit so no air

will leak.

lockable valves to hold vacuum values in use. Re-check the display readings and confirm they are still

reading the same values. If not re-adjust the carburettors as necessary.
