GMC 270 engine.
My vacuum advance is not working. I know during acceleration and under load it is a non-issue.
What problems might I expect if I drive it until I can get it replaced?

Thanks

The only thing it will effect is lower gas mileage. It might effect drive ability but it will hardly be noticeable.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Probably notice some hesitation when you take off as George
posted. But it's not going to hurt anything.
