CASO,

Took a run at 3:00 PM. 8 miles.

Start
Vacuum at idle 18-19"
Rpm 1050
Temp <100

Return time 3:18 PM
Vacuum at idle 18-19"
RPM 1050
Temp 170

On run vacuum fluctuated 6" to 23".
Step on gas vacuum drops.
Let off gas vacuum is easily 22-23"
Climbed that 1/2 mile long hill and vacuum drops to 0-6" about half the way up and Lucille is losing power and cut out twice.
When I let off the gas she kicks back in immediately and vacuum is 10-15".
Eased up on acceleration for the last half of the hill to get her to the top.
What does that mean?

Thats the latest story.
