Starters: '85 Civic, 3 door, single carby, 12 valve from Australia.
I have read heaps of posts re de-vac procedures on CRx carbys.
It would seem that the tiny little carby on my civic is no-where-near the same layout as the CRx carby. Obviously the vac lines and ports will be represented, but I can't simply copy the crxfanatic pictures.
I am possibly going to price up and install a twin-carby setup from a later model, but this looks a decent interim solution (which is funny, since twin carbs, if they happen are an interim solution to installing my gold motor.). Swapping out the carb for another type (say a webber or holley) is not an option. I *could* get a CRx carb ... but then that could be a problem, supply wise, and if I'm buying, I may as well get the twins.
So, after all that guffaw;
What is the theory of this 'de vac' procedure?
What is the benefit?
How do you do it? (ie: what ports to what sources)
Where do you find the ports and where do you find the sources?
(I'm going to be *trying* to find the carby specific data in my electronic manual too, so I'll post whatever *I* can find too)
Thanks for your time and help!
