Hey Mike,

I've been wondering if you had any luck measuring the manifold vacuum. As far as I know, the Bentley does not describe the procedure or provide specs for manifold vacuum, but the archives contain some good info. The e- mail I sent a couple weeks ago describes the procedure in very general terms, but I am not familiar with the vacuum lines on a water cooled van so I can't provide more specific advice. good luck, Jake
