Trapped Vacuum Spark

Trapped vacuum spark is used on all models. A thermal vacuum switch (TVS) is mounted in cylinder head and used to sense engine coolant temperature. A vacuum check valve is mounted between manifold vacuum, distributor and thermal vacuum switch. The system maintains high vacuum levels to distributor during cold engine operation and cold engine acceleration.
