Post subject:  123 ignition no vacuum connection

Hi i just bought an 123 ignition distributor and it has no vacuum port to connect to there is a screw in the side of the unit where i believe the port connection should be have i been sold a dud? or is the connection just missing and been replaced with the srew?the manual that came with the unit shows an vacuum sensor connection and says to disconnect the vacuum tube when fine tuning the ignition.So the big Q where is my vacuum connetion?should i have one? :roll:
Any help greatly accepted.

thanks jamie

Is having no vacuum advance going to reduce fuel economy at part throttel becouse im wanting to set the motor up for economy over power as i believe the vacuum advances the timing under high vacuum to improve fuel economy is this right?

Mine has the vacuum port which I have capped because I am using a 45 Webber. You might be better swapping yours for the same one with the port. If it is still unused and you got it from Ted Cross in Melbourne he will swap it for you.

"If you have a cam with 270° or more duration, having a vac advance connection will do little for economy. You may think it works when watching the strobe light in neutral, but under way there is insufficient part throttle vacuum to advance it".
