I have a problem with vibration in my motor at about 2000rpm so I am going to try a vacuum advance distributor to try and remedy the problem as some people have suggested. Do I need to run a vacuum line from both of my Weber 34mm carbs and "tee" it to my distributor or can I run it from just one carb? WIll I get proper advance from using just one carb?

the original VW carbs only used the left carb for vacuum advance.
You might not even really need the vacuum advance if you are using a FI distributor.
