[Mgs] Vacuum Leak

[Max Heim]

Sure you don’t just have the carbs wildly misadjusted?

There is also the port for the vacuum advance, but IIRC that is at the rear carb.

The fuel filter has been replaced as well as the rubber fuel lines. New battery installed. She cranks but runs very roughly. If you cover about 3/4 of the front carb air intake, the car runs beautifully. I have replaced the six gaskets between the carb, spacer, heat shield and intake manifold, but no change. I assume that I should next replace the manifold gasket?? Where else could air be leaking in?
