WTB, vane vacuum pump

[rabbitman]

I am so sick of changing the diaphragm on my current pump I decided to go for the newer style. I've probably spent 80 bucks buying replacement diaphragms in the last 5 years trying to "save money" by not upgrading.

So, let me know what you have and what you want for it. Thanks

my vane pump intermittently quits supplying vacuum.. actually, both of my vane pumps were that way..

you got a diaphragm pump tho, so its kinda expected.. mine is a vane pump.. they are supposed to be trouble free..

Now I'm remembering that there's a difference in length between the old and new style.

Do I have to measure mine?

length of what? as long as your vacuum pump doesnt have a coiled up oil supply line, it should be a direct swap from your diaphragm pump..

only pump i know for sure wont work, is an AAZ pump..

or are you talking about the drive for the oil pump?

they come in 2 styles.. flat against the bottom of the gear, and recessed ~3/8" up into the gear.. the vane pump only comes one way, so hope its the same as what you have, other wise you will need a new oil pump with the correct length shaft..

I just compared my diaphragm pump and vane and they're the same.

The oil pump drive is recessed 3/4 up inside the gear on both.

then your good to go, i think only the early engines got the short oil pump shaft..

I made the last two diaphragms out of 1/8" rubber and the first one lasted a couple months and the second is dying after only a week or two. I got sick of buying new $12 diaphragms.

Good to know about the old pumps.

i had to swap out the vacuum pump and oil pump at the same time when i boosted my 1.5

good thing i noticed the shafts were different lengths, because the new vac pump would not have turned the old oil pump.
