Vacume Gap

Those vacume gaps do work well. Mine only uses 1/2 inch pipe and isn't put 
together very well, but it still runs very well. The vacume is an external 
wet/dry vacume attached by the hose on it. The vacume seems to strong, unless 
it is spaced very well it will stop firing with a 12000v tranny once the 
vacume gets to speed. Too wide it won't fire, not wide enough and the airflow 
seems much too strong.
