Non-Trouble Code Procedures

1. Disconnect vacuum hose at speed control servo and install a vacuum gauge into the disconnected hose.
2. Start engine and observe gauge at idle. Vacuum gauge should read at least Ten inches of mercury.
3. If vacuum is less than Ten inches of mercury, determine source of leak. Check vacuum line to engine for leaks. Also check actual engine intake manifold vacuum. If manifold vacuum does not meet this requirement, check for poor engine performance and repair as necessary.
4. If vacuum line to engine is not leaking, check for leak at vacuum reservoir. To locate and gain access to reservoir, refer to Vacuum Reservoir Removal/Installation. Disconnect vacuum line at reservoir and connect a hand-operated vacuum pump to reservoir fitting. Reservoir vacuum should not bleed off. If vacuum is being lost, replace reservoir.
