Looking at hooking the vacumm advance up on my 2litre pinto, the advance unit has two barbs, one faces the front of the engine, one the back.
Which one do I use? or does it matter?
Can't find a decent pic in my books or any diagrams on the net.
Any help appreciated. Drew.

front should be advance and back will be retard
look for a polution diagram might give you some idea where to run your vac lines

Hi Drew,
Found a copy of the original emissions diagram, don't know how relevant it is to your current setup.  Did you eventually get a copy of the parts cd, found the diagram in the illustrations section.  Len  Bugger- can't get it to load up - Section 96 slide D15

Front one - pointing up.

Thanks guys thats the info I needed.
Hey Len, yeah got the parts CD, looking at getting it printed and bound so I can easily flick though it in the garage.
Cheers Drew

Hope you have better luck than me Drew on the Vaccum and emission setup.
I need to do round 2 on the pinto emission config attempt.
It runs ok and I thought I had it hooked up according to diagram, but smells too oily/fumey to be correct I think.
 
One of those jobs where it would take someone 5 minutes if they knew whats what.
