Now I am confused. Lit her off this morning and it spews clouds,
there is a growing sheen in the rain soaked street from the tail pipe,
and I am not seeing any oil in the vac lines or leaking fuel, other
than the tail pipe.
I wonder it may be coolant in the block, so I undo the rad cap.

pressure in there after a few minutes, so I run around the block
again. No temp rise, no massive clouds. No idea what took place.
Ideas?
Stuck
I wondered, but it was running cool Friday, and spewed lots of smoke.
Maybe it is stuck. I had to use prestone or some crap coolant when
the lower hose busted a few weeks ago.

Driving down the freeway yesterday there began to be a larger and
larger cloud emanating from her rear. Hit the go pedal and cloud. At
stop it enveloped the car. Once I got home, I looked under the hood,
and there was a wet spot on the bell housing of what I think is the
Vac
If it shut off with the switch, mayhaps not...(unless I don't know how that
engine works). I know I have to use the kill switch when mine goes kaput.

If you have the pipe off the side if the vac pump, pull it off, and if
it is full of oil, diaphragm is gone.
Btdt.

Very likely.
When you replace it, make absolutely positive that the locking screw
hole is clean and dry, else the screw will come loose and beat the
housing and cam to death, and likely also puncture the diaphragm again.

I second that emotion, though in my case it poked a hole in the front
pump casting. Took me the longest time to figure out why it wasn't
working, I woke up one morning and realized that hole did not belong
there. Took awhile for my brain to put the visual of the hole together
with the fact
