  2. On California models, disconnect water thermo valve-to-spark delay valve vacuum hose at spark delay valve and connect a vacuum gauge. On Federal models, disconnect spark delay valve-to-carburetor vacuum hose and connect vacuum gauge.
  3. Start engine and idle. Note idle vacuum level. Pull intake manifold vacuum source off and record time it takes vacuum to decrease 11.8 in. Hg from idle vacuum reading. If time exceeds 4-6 seconds, replace spark delay valve.
