vacuum number off the main line?

Does anyone know what my mityvac should read off the main vacuum line. I getting 15-16 and I think that may be low. Is it time to rebuild the pump?? Thanks

If I remember correctly, 20 is the typical number. I wouldn't think rebuilding is necessary, unless vacuum operated things aren't working right (engine shutoff, etc).
