Yes, it seems strange. When I first got my van,I checked my general auto
repair books and they all mention 16 to 18" at idle. I figured maybe my low
vacuum was because of the 1.9 liter's retarded timing.

But for the past year I have been monitoring posts that mention vacuum and
10 to 12" seems to be the norm for the 1.9 or 2.1 wasserboxer.
