    Same torque on all the studs?. Clean mating surfaces?. Gasket intact? (No groves
    from bends). Tighten the clamps on the brake vaccum hose?. Brake vacuum hose
    intact?. Tighten the locknut on brake vacuum pipe?. Check dizzy vacuum rubbers &
    line?. Check carb fitting? (Studs, nuts, adapter, gasket). Check if tea on
    garage hot plate is about ready?

    What did i miss?
