Dear Thomas,
Ach du Lieber! I am glad that somebody knows exactly what the mysteriour
port-plug is for. Unfortunately, I am so dumb I didn't know that a
*temperature switch* for a vacuum advance even existed. It doesn't appear to be used
very much at all. Was a vacuum advance temp sensor some sort of
seventies&eighties era anti-smog ignition feature??
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
