To determine if the vacuum advance on an AMC 360 is faulty, start by disconnecting the vacuum hose from the distributor and checking for any vacuum leaks or cracks in the hose. Next, use a hand-held vacuum pump to apply vacuum to the advance unit; if the diaphragm holds vacuum and the advance mechanism moves freely, it's likely functioning properly. If the diaphragm leaks or does not hold vacuum, or if there's no movement in the advance, the vacuum advance is likely bad and should be replaced. Additionally, checking for erratic ignition timing under varying engine speeds can also indicate a malfunctioning vacuum advance.

Does a amc 304 and amc 360 use the same crank shaft?

No, the AMC 304 and AMC 360 do not use the same crankshaft. While both engines share the same basic design and dimensions, the crankshaft for the AMC 360 is longer and has different stroke specifications, resulting in a larger displacement. Therefore, they are not interchangeable.

Did amc 360 v8 engines ever make into late 1969 model amc Javelins?

No. The AMC 360 was not introduced until 1970. In 1969, AMC had in their V8 lineup, 290, 343 and the awesome 390. However, the AMC 343 is a 360 with a shorter stroke. (the crank being the only major difference between the two) So depending on how new of a 360 a person has and some other minor issues, it will bolt right into a '69 Javelin engine bay.
