Distributor Vacuum Control: Description and Operation
Forward Delay Valve

PURPOSE

Some engines incorporate a one-way forward delay valve in the vacuum advance circuit to reduce hydrocarbon emission and improve driveability. 

OPERATION

The valve delays the effects of sudden increases in vacuum during rapid throttle closings. This action prevents sudden spark advance during
deceleration.
