    Default Vacuum Gauge Diagnostic Guides

    These vacuum gauge diagnostic guides were
    taken from the tune-up manual which came with
    my old (since gone) timing light, and also an old
    Reader's Digest car care manual.

    Note that the Reader's Digest version erroneously
    shows one of the vacuum sources for tapping as
    the distributor's advance inlet.

    Sorry about the quality of the scans, but I had
    to compress them drastically to fit the attachment
    constraints of 97 kb each.

    I wouldn't say that, in fact I'd say that it'll work even better since the line is small & restricted so the gauge doesn't flutter and seem to be near its breaking point.
