My '79 F-150, 351M, has a thermostatic vacuum switch mounted on the
thermostat housing. It has...err had.... four vacuum nipples coming off
it. I assume that these are two separate vacuum circuits, one for the
distributor advance and one for the EGR. One of the nipples for the EGR
broke off. Being really cheap and not wanting to spring for a new switch
my inclination is to run the distributor straight off the carb and move the
EGR to the other circuit.
Anyone see any problems with doing this? We have no emissions inspection
in Nebraska.

I don't have a final count nor the comments ready as I've
been working all week (and administering the list from work)
with 78 hours put in so far (good thing I contract!) but
a quick glance at the vote emails shows about an 80% vote
in favor of the split. Voting participation was light,
with less than 100 votes.

I'll have the third list set up within a week, with details
of the list, the vote, etc. published when its all ready...

Heres a question,I have a BAD vibration at the speed of 30-35 in
any gear..Could this be a tire out of balance????Or a U joint?

We've had a brief moment of celebration at the Neighbors' place. I am
proud to announce that my '54 F-250, known as "Grover", today drove the
first mile that it has driven under its own power since being parked in a
shed in 1974.
Now if I can just figure out why the battery won't hold a charge, why the
turn signals don't work, and where that goshawful sqeaking noise is coming
from.....
