I live in Cali and i bought a car from out of state. Unfortionately here we have those nice (HA!) smog laws and the car didnt have any smog So I bought a new motor with all the smog on it. Now i gotta figure out how to hook it all up.

well My car is an 82 T/a. It had a Vaccume advance Distributer withthe coil mounted on top of the distributer. Is that car supposed to have a vaccume advance? Does any of yours? There does the vaccume line from the distributer plug in at if so? Thanks

this help?

 

That helps a lot actually as im trying to figure this mess out. I just have one dumb question

is the vac sensor on the top right the vaccume port on the distributer?

 

Your car is not supposed to have a vacuum advance distributor.

The thing at the top right is the computer's vacuum sensor, otherwise known as the MAP sensor. It's a little box that should be mounted on the firewall behind the brake booster.

 

So i take it that this vehical did not have a vacume advance distributer as a stock feature?

 

shoot srry that is for a camaro Ive got to find the one I have for a TA

 

Im still looking for the diagram 4 u. my pc crashed so I need to recover my hardrive. see if the local dealer has one they might.

 

The T/A should have had the dual-snokel:



But that car should also have had an Electronic Spark Timing system and no mechanical nor vacuum advance distributor.
