Installed my vacuum gauge, next how do you read the little blighter.
As far as I can work out my valve timings late, and I have a vacuum
leak.  Both don't relay surprised me.  

Idling its fair to good to excellent, and moves between them. 

When I am cruising it halfway between poor, and do you ever take your
foot off the pedal.  Decelerating it maybe gets up to excellent.    

When I blip the pedal, the needle goes down slowly to fair pour then a
slowly up to excellent before going down to good. 

The divisions are like this

0                                                   I would guess this
to be 25"hg? 
|      Pour      | Fair | Good |      Excellent      |     

Any diagnoses
