Clouds of black smoke gone 700

Will do! I think you are right, moreover engine management components would now nearly all be brand new. The only thing I can remember has not been changed is the coil, but I tested it with a multimeter and it checked OK. Other systems like cooling, brakes and suspension have been overhauled or are being overhauled. AT was throroughly rebuilt a year ago. All fluid have been thoroughly flushed and synthetics put in. A/C is now all new forward of the firewall plus evaporator. As I write, I am drawing a vacuum in the A/C, but the vintage pump I borrowed is drawing only 25 inches Hg after two hours. Is this enough? Should I put in R134 and see what happens? Best regards.
