I'd be very surprised indeed if the vacuum from the carb is strong enough to move a syringe!

Either you have very poor lungs/mouth - or the dizzy vac unit is very tight. It should easily move with lung power. Never heard of anyone testing a carb like that - I would just probe the passage with a wire.

There is nothing to go wrong with the carb end, unless it has become blocked somehow, it's just a hole.

So to slightly hijack the thread, if the vacuum unit will move when sucked with a syringe but not under mouth power can it be loosened with wd40 or should it be replaced?

Try disconnecting the vacuum pipe, blocking it, then driving the car.
That's the acid test, if it makes no difference the unit is toast, if the engine lacks pep the unit is fine, reconnect it.

I think I'll be having the result of the test for breakfast with marmite.
