Title: Want to buy rebuild kit for 1958 oil/vacuum pump
Post by: David King (kz78hy) on July 18, 2008, 03:31:58 PM
Hello everyone

I dropped off the engine today for rebuild and the technician told me to try and find a rebuild kit for the vacuum pump which is attached to the oil pump.  Anyone out there already solved this problem or found a source?

I do not want to convert over to electric for the wipers, so that is not an option yet.

Thanks

There is an update.  I see Mastermind offers these kits, I do not know how much yet, but they should be available.

Upon some research of my own stock I found I have a rebuilt oil/vacuum pump already in possession I feel a little foolish now.  When you buy surplus parts caches, it is hard to remember every item in every lot.  I'm tickled pink that I already have a complete unit ready to install.  I would still like to redo the pull out of my engine just to have on hand.
