VACUUM TESTING PROCEDURES

Running Engine Tests

Connect the vacuum gauge to the manifold vacuum

source.

Run the engine at normal operating temperature and

idle speed. A steady reading between 15 and 22

inches indicates a mechanically sound engine.

PCV Valve Test For Crankcase Ventilation

Operate the engine at normal temperature and idle

speed.

2. Remove the hose connected between the air cleaner

and valve cover or oil filler/breather cap. Plug the oil

dipstick tube to prevent an air leak.

3. Hold the vacuum gauge with the rubber universal

adapter firmly over the valve cover hole or filler/

breather cap opening. A good PCV system will draw

a vacuum of 3 to 5 inches within 10 seconds.

FUEL PRESSURE TESTING PROCEDURE

WARNING:

FOR USE ON FUEL SYSTEMS WITH A

CARBURETOR, OR LOW-PRESSURE

TBI SYSTEMS NOT EXCEEDING

15 PSI.

CAUTION:

USE EXTREME CARE IN

DISCONNECTING FUEL LINES.

LEAKING GASOLINE IS A SERIOUS

HAZARD.

1. Check all fittings, connections, and rubber fuel lines

for leaks. If leaks are present, repair leaks before

testing.

2. Disconnect the fuel line between the fuel pump and

the carburetor or the TBI system. Attach the gauge

hose to the fuel line using adapters as needed.

3. Operate the engine at idle speed and note reading.

On a good fuel pump, the pressure will range from

4 to 6 psi, with lower readings on smaller engines.
