Title: 68 472 vacuum advance can for distributor
Post by: Dan M on September 04, 2012, 03:49:38 PM
I would like to find an NOS one, or a recommendation.  Mine is leaking, so not working at all.

THX!!

Got mine at NAPA , and I couldn't see any difference.
Food for thought.

Be careful with new vacuum advances.  I have been getting generic units that are also for the later cars.  These travel too far giving as much as 22 degrees of advance.  The max advance for the 68 is 12 degrees.  If you go to 22 degrees you will get pinging and some over heating.
