[DMCForum] Vacuum experiment



Am sacrificing quality Ford time for this...

Is a pipe plug on passenger side of timing chain cover. Am assuming
accesses valve train:

If you feed steady stream of carb cleaner through that hole engine
bogs down. Doesn't die, but definitely slows. Is most dramatic effect
if you bend straw to spray upwards towards valve cover.

Either I'm just washing all the oil off and running chains dry, or
there's a route between timing chain cover and intake.

Also hear a faint "poof" if you cover hole with your finger. Is true
you don't feel a lot of suck.

Failed to recreate engine moan with breather tube covered (is actually
more of a cry) until -- duh -- plug was reinstalled. Now screams quite
nicely thank you very much. Tell me that bad boy wasn't sucking.

Oh, my passenger valves are clattering now that they're full of carb
cleaner.

Am first to admit I'm not the smartest tool in the shed, but this all
indicates passage from valve train to intake somewhere on passenger
side of block...

Now, if you'll all excuse me, am going to break out the trouble light
for some real work.

Will check back later...
