I am not sure there is a vacuum line out of a zenith, it probably be better to use a bosch 010 distributor or something if you are using twin carbs. Is the kit set up for a 1300, seems it might be over-carbed?

Si.

HI!
The Zenith 32 NDIX carbs do not have a vacuum line. Itīs also depending on the manofolds-itīs possible to adapt a vacuum line but it will be much better to use a 010 or 009 distributor. The Zenith crabs sometimes have the problem of having "micro cracks" in their bodies, so it can be a problem to synchronize/adjust them properly. Itīs also not the easiest thing to get spare parts or differnet jets for the carbs...After bad expierneces with those carbs, I kicked them out and mounted Weber 40 idf-much more relieable carbs. The Weber 36 idf should match your 1300 engine much better than 40 idf or 32 NDIX!
