Got this visor along with the car and I'll never use it and it's taking up space. It's in good shape no dents or rust, has been painted matte...
Thanks for the info guys, I knew it'd be a quick answer if I asked here!

It did have 3 ports, PVC, trans, advance. I'm gonna get the starter fluid out when I get home and see what happens. I'll probably swap the plugs...
Oops. Tha should have been .040

Shit happens, just means I'll have to find trouble some other way while we're out there.
I only have my vaccum advance and trans line to connect. The Brake booster port in the back is plugged. Both ports in the front are used by the...
