Bij de GTV6 en mijn 205 rallye zit de vacuumvervroeging aangesloten bij de gasklep zodat de vervroeging pas gaat werken als je de gasklep wat opent. Bij andere auto's (zoals volgens mij de 75 met carbs) wordt vacuumvervroeging echter al toegepast bij gesloten gasklep. vanwaar dit verschil?
Ik heb al ff gegoogled en vond dit stukje:
bron; http://www.centuryperformance.com/timing.aspIt is our recommendation that when you are using vacuum advance distributors, that you connect the vacuum advance to "full manifold vacuum". There are two schools on where to connect the vacuum advance line. On older applications the connection point was to "ported" vacuum. Ported vacuum means the port is drawing vacuum "above" the throttle blades in the carburetor. This means that as RPM increases, vacuum increases and in turn, vacuum advance increases. This was fine on older applications with high lead fuel and other ancient engine designs. Using this set up today can cause detonation problems, overheating, and other grief.
With our suggestion of using the vacuum connection to full manifold vacuum, the port will be drawing vacuum below the throttle blades. A good running street engine will have a measured vacuum at idle between 14"-20" of manifold vacuum. Now, this will give you a ton of advance at idle, but as load increases (vacuum drops) you will take timing away. This is excellent for the faster burning fuels offered today as well as in the fact that when you put your foot into the throttle and get the RPM building, you DO NOT need or want additional timing. On a RV or tow vehicle, when you put your foot into the throttle and downshift to climb a grade, you DO NOT want added timing that will slow the vehicle and add heat. You want the added timing for subtle throttle response, and low load engine efficiency. So, when you are cruising at freeway speeds or in town traffic, you have the added timing to save fuel, add throttle response, and overall give you a better feel.
