"For me, the vacuum advancer adjusted all 15 degrees at idle when connected to driver-side port. it made the idle rough and car also vibrated in non-cadillac way.

Anders was very right about his suggestion
Do plug that line until you can replace the broken valve
That should enable you to drive the…"

"Plug the right side of the Edelbrock carb vacuum port
I would plug the line you removed from that port until you locate where it goes
Someone with a 63 should help with that vacuum lines correct location
