I want to get an idea on what you guys are using for vac testing saws mainly the diy route. Going to be using the brake bleeder type of pump.
I useally have some off cuts of aluminum plate laying around. Have way more steel though about 2 tons of it.For making blocker plates I use 1/4 inch aluminum plate of which I have plenty of, one can tighten the screws down on it without worry about bending it and use rubber occluders made from the rubber roof typegaskets used around pipes that protrude through the roofline, it`s already flat and of a thickness that does nor roll up upon its self, cuts to shape easily with just large frame scissors or my metal snips.If one needs or wants to include a port to pull vac or pressure through then it is easy to drill the 1/4 aluminum plate and thread in a brass hose barb.
Steel would be fine, I just like working with aluminum much more, it does not rust and is softer to cut and drill.I useally have some off cuts of aluminum plate laying around. Have way more steel though about 2 tons of it.
A little paste wax on steel tools goes a long waySteel would be fine, I just like working with aluminum much more, it does not rust and is softer to cut and drill.
Thought most guys draw a vac from the impulse hole or intake/ exhaust ports?Two pieces of silver duct tape stuck to each other and poke holes in wear muffler or carb bolts go through And reattach muffler or carb.
