Unlocking the Secrets of Engine Health: Vacuum Tests Explained

Vacuum tests are among the most effective tools for diagnosing engine performance issues. By measuring the vacuum in the intake manifold, technicians gain valuable insights into engine health, pinpointing problems like compression, valve timing, ignition, or fuel delivery.

What Are Vacuum Tests?

A vacuum test measures the vacuum created by the pistons during their intake stroke. This reading reveals factors like compression, valve sealing, and ignition timing. Technicians use a vacuum gauge to connect to the intake manifold and observe the needle’s movement in inches of mercury (in. Hg).

How to Perform a Vacuum Test:

1. Prepare Engine: Get the engine to normal temperature.

2. Connect Gauge: Attach the vacuum gauge to the manifold.

3. Start Engine: Let it idle and observe the readings.

4. Record and Analyze: Note the readings and compare them with expected results.

What Do Vacuum Readings Reveal?

• Normal (17-22 in. Hg): Good engine condition.

• Low (below 17 in. Hg): Possible valve timing, ignition, or vacuum leaks.

• Fluctuating Needle: May indicate stuck/burned valves or uneven compression.

• Sharp Drop on Acceleration: Indicates a restricted exhaust system.

Common Issues Diagnosed:

• Stuck/Burned Valves

• Vacuum Leaks

• Compression Issues

• Exhaust Blockages

Conclusion:

Vacuum tests are an efficient, cost-effective method to diagnose engine issues. Whether you’re a professional or a DIY enthusiast, these tests offer quick and reliable insights into your engine’s performance.

Aww. Those poor babies.

 Panicked FBI Agents Are Planning a Protest Monday at DC Headquarters

According to the article if they protest they can be fired.

I guess they can learn to code.

Hope this works the way everyone wants it to.

Why Most Americans Support Mass Deportation

 

I should hire this guy to clean my chimney.

 

Trump signs order to slash federal regulations

mandating that for each new regulation issued, at least 10 prior regulations must be identified for elimination. 

Unfortunately this order doesn't go far enough.

I think he should remove 5,000 prior rules or regulations instead of 10.

I also think language should be added to prevent the removed regulations from simply being added to the new regulation.

Personally, I do not think any new laws rules regulations etc. need to be made. If we don't have enough laws now to cover every conceivable situation I will eat my hat. 

This Will Be A Long War - DOGE Looks Under The Hood To Find Out Where Your Money Is Going

 This is a long war, and the guys on the other side have no intention of simply packing up and going home.

Have you ever wanted to know where our tax money is actually being spent? 

I know I have. And now it looks like that may actually be starting to happen.

Bureaucrats are rapidly finding themselves either without a job or unable to stop OUR President from finding out what they are doing, and have been doing. Many of them are out and out defying his orders.

If anyone knows how to get a message to Elon and Vivek, ask them to make a website that shows each and every check the .gov sends out.

Make Transparency Great Again.

FBI Termination Update

 Calls For ALL FBI Personnel Assigned to January 6th Investigations/Personnel To Be Identified

Looks to me like the fbi has fucked around and now they are finding out.

President Trump isn't fooling around, is he? Almost every headline I see has him firing somebody or terminating some program. Hall... Hall... Well fuck I can't spell Hallelujah.

I wonder how long it is going to take the hypocrite dems to start trying to file impeachment charges.

REEEEEE!!! Orange Man is bad! Help Us!

Good Saturday Morning

 

People Are Getting Touchy

 

This coulda been done every single fuckin' day of the Biden Presidency, but wasn't. Why not?

 Feds Grab a Shitload of Violent Gangbangers

The link above is from Lady Lake

He is right. This could have been done every day of the socalled biden presidency.

But, if they had done their job, this wouldn't have HAD to be done.

The socalled biden presidency let these people in on purpose. They want this country to fail, who knows why. 

They want these people to do the socalled cheap labor and convince the rest of us to continuously rely on the largesse of government. They want us lazy and dependent on them. 

Who knows why? I sure as hell don't. 

Everyone benefits when we rely on ourselves.

Except govt I guess.

Have You Ever Pulled a Stupid?

 Boy, I pulled a stupid last night.

About 8:20 I decided to bring in some firewood.

About 8:30 I had enough in for the night.

So I lay down in my recliner, cover up and I'm out like a light.

Except for the 4 or 5 times I get up to go pee I slept good.

About 4:15 I wake up to pee, and decide to look at the solar battery voltage. I have a fridge and a freezer plugged into them and don't want the batteries to go too low.

So I go to the back door to go check. And SON OF A Bitch!!

I never closed and locked the door and it had been open ALL Damn Night!

The security door was wide open. The wood door was pushed closed but not latched. The outdoor light was lit up for the world to see.

I'm just glad no racoons fox rabbits skunks etc. decided to come in where it's warm

If I keep going this way I'm gonna wind up in the stupid home for dumasses.

President Trump Isn't Effing Around

Six Out Of Seven Executive Assistant Directors and 25 Special Agents in Charge Out at FBI

 President Trump is serious about making this country great again.

One of the ways he is doing that is by actively draining the swamp.

Or at least making a good beginning of it.

And speaking of swamp critters, here's chicago's mayor:

This is Pretty Funny

 

If You Enter the US Illegally, you are, by definition, A CRIMINAL

 

Thought for Today

 President Trump is set to make deleting your diesel legal, and deleting your weiner illegal.

What a time to be an American.

What is a Deleted Diesel Truck?

A nurse walked into the bank I was at today. She was exhausted after an 18 hour shift. She pulled a rectal thermometer out of her pocket and tried to write a check with it.  She looked at the cashier and sighed and said, Well that's just great. Some asshole has my pen.

Her: Hey who is this contact in your phone named jumper cables? 

Me: That's you

Her: Why in the hell is my name jumper cables?

Me: Because you're always starting something!

This is Some Interesting Reading

 

I borrowed this from Liberty is a Contact Sport.

Here is a link to the text:8 U.S. Code § 1324 - Bringing in and harboring certain aliens

Read the last paragraph: (e)Outreach program

The Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of State, as appropriate, shall develop and implement an outreach program to educate the public in the United States and abroad about the penalties for bringing in and harboring aliens in violation of this section.

Who is the new DHS? Wonder if she will do this.

Trump REVERSES Whiny D.C. Judge

Apparently some federal judge thinks his decision is higher than the Commander in Chief.

This guy decides a few of the people who got pardoned had to have restrictions placed on their freedom. But that got fixed.

Are Preemptive Pardons Legal? Lawyer Explains

If my family was in danger of getting charged with something I would be in favor of pre-emptive pardons for my family. But as this guy says, now the republicans are gonna do this, and then democrats again, and so on and so on.

I thought this guy had a good take on the subject. The video is about 20 minutes. Enjoy.

I think she needs to learn how to spell!

 The mayor of philadelphia tried to start a chant. But I think she needs to learn how to spell. Didn't there used to be a literacy test way back yonder in order to vote? Maybe there should be a literacy test in order to be mayor.
