Default Tested AOS...

Well, didn't have the recommended digital gauge most seem to be using. But you guys think I've got a basic idea if old AOS is still working ok for now? till I get around to changing it out as regular maintenance. Have no sign of a bad aos, no oil smoke on start up or any time. Seems to not use any oil at all so far. Idles smooth and steady and revs smooth no misses to redline. But do have what seems like oily hose clamps where the manifolds hook up to the plenums....? No oil in the plenum when the Throttle body was out getting cleaned.

Drilled and tapped my oil cap for a 1/4 flare fitting that fits my hoses, put an oring at its base and it screwed it tight. Capped it off with an oring cap, no Schrader valve needed imo.

Have a psi gauge thats suppose to be accurate to 1/10 a pt. reading -0.2 psi. Also checked it with a small vacuum gauge that read -0.19 -0.20 psi
