Hi All,
Given all of the discussion on the distributor and earlier threads on the
temp sensor/vacuum switch I have come to the conclusion that leaving that
switch out is more than likely the cause of a lot of very hot engines.
Over this last weekend while doing a search for the infamous "miss" I
managed to almost boil the engine over. After reading Dick's(at least I
think it was Dick's) answer about what the switch really did I hooked it
back up properly and then watched RPM, Temp, and Vacuum, it never got real
hot again. The conditions for this test were 160deg thermo, 95deg F
ambient, 4400 feet, NO breeze through Garage.
This may be that one piece of emissions equipment that really needs to be
left on
