Setting Up Water Protect Distributor

Post by G60michael »

Hi All could any US members please enlighten on how to plumb up the 3 Vaccum ports on the Water Protect Distributors. I have installed one to my G60 here in Australia that i brought from the US. Its in and running fine just need to find out how to plum up the open ports so i can go test it in some water :)

Photos also would be a mayor help, and does anyone know the thread of the ports maybe i could find some screw on barbs to use.

On mine, the front port on the distributor goes to the side of the air cleaner and the other one goes underneath the air cleaner. They both run around the front of the engine. Honestly, I don't see how it matters which is connected where, as it appears that the only purpose of these tubes is for ventilation of the distributor.

The vacuum advanve module goes to a vacuum operated switch near the carb. I suppose you could hook it up like a regular vacuum advance.

Sideways, I was on a steep incline.
