ducellier vacuum advance wanted

[mmvanman]

I have a '85 R4F6. It has the Ducellier distributor and the vacuum advance unit isn't working. It is possible to get a new Ducellier vacuum advance unit?

Are there any other vacuum advances that are available that could be adapted?

If not where could I find a second hand unit?

If you do a search it's been discussed before - quite a bit of info on here about it.

first of all-Which Ducellier unit are you talking about? it's got a alfa-numeric code on it..... fx: Ducellier 48 c 33 -R.

Distributor code

There are two numbers on the distributor are R324C33 and 525387A.

Hope this helps.

The only one i think may be able to point you in the right direction would be "John Doe" on here-send him a PM.
Are you Sure your wacuum-clock is broken?? I thought mine was a goner too as when I sucked and held it didn't hold wacuum..the point is it's Not supposed too either-as if you look really careful there is a pin-size hole,the size of (.) on the side towards your dizzy-little down of center.Only if you hold your finger tight to close this hole you can check the membrane to hold wacuum...
