Vacuum gauge hooked to a manifolf vacuum port........ take a look at one of the Mustangs I've worked.... SN95 + E-303 + V2 SC. This was a pre-check before the track, check the vacuum/boost readings........ vacuum "metric" is inches Hg, boost is PSI. Idle rpms were 780.

I also have the same problem with it bucking. It really pisses me off. I advanced the timing and it seemed to take care of it but then wouldn't start up again till it cooled down. I have an F302 cam in mine.

Thanks for all the impute guys! I have been hearing the same thing from some mustnag guys around my area, they are all saying it's just part of having that cam. I wishI would have known, I would have had another cam put in it when it was built. I will try and double check the vacuum just to see what else I can come up with? Thanks for the extra input and link Joel5.0.
