Wash your mouth out Pete, that would be a crime  :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Unless you fit a diesel V8  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh and as a v8 owner you can add the snorkel to the list of useless inventions including the chocolate teapot, the wax fireguard etc  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've done the mod to the dizzy a while ago after a disastrous day in a ford  :oops:

I used some brass nipples & silicone tubes but just not sure where to route the tubes too, mine are just wrapped round by the airflow meter at the moment.
I used the article that Eeyore posted but was worried about the timing thing. " as a small pressure change will effect timing."

I also bought some new leads & siliconed on the dizzy cap.

I tried it out yesterday in the same ford that caused all the trouble, I tried my hardest to get it to splutter but it didn't.
It was nowhere near as deep as when I got it flooded though but managed to get the water over the bonnet with no problems this time round  :D

You need to drill two holes in the body of the distributor and run a small bore tube from one to a vacuum source and the other to a dry place preferably through a filter. I have screw in adapters from an old MOD distributor in mine but most seem to just silicone the tube into the hole.

Mike

Whats the best vacuum source?

Then what, put the other one into a snorkel?
