I have a mini spares torquemaster inlet manifold and want to fit a vacuum tube for the vaccum gauge but myself and Tomf could not figure out where it went.

Any ideas?

Could you not 't' it into the vacuum advance pipe? What sort of connection do you have on the guage?

Looking at that you only have two choices

T into the vacuum line that goes from the carb to the dizzy at the moment

or

Minispares etc will sell you a little sandwich plate with a vacuum take off that goes between your carb and manifold !!


Also looking at that pic you might want to put a pipe on that bare connection on the left of the carb which I think is the fuel overflow. Last thing you want is fuel pouring out onto a hot exhaust !!!!!!
