    Fitting Brake Vacuum Pump

    Hi All

    Just a quick question I'm about to fit a new brake vacum pump (95 TDi) anything special about it. I have read through heaps of the threads on this subject it seems to be a simple bolt off/on. I thought I read in one of threads that I had to prime the new unit. Now I am ready to fit I cant find that thread again was I imagining it or do I need to prime the unit and if so is it just a case of filling a little bit of oil in the unit before fitting.

    Cheers
    Lars

    bolt on bolt off, if its fighting you too hard turn the engine between 180 and 360 degrees on the crank.

    Straight forward job, actually. No major pains to be expected.

    Hi Kwosie,
    As Black Knight has mentioned, relatively easy job, makes things so much easier if you have the cam lobe in the right place to start off with, if you turn the crank and hold a mirror over the hole makes getting the cam in the right place, very easy.

    Thanks to all who replied .....I must have been blessed or just very lucky no turning of the motor required it stopped just where we wanted it to no cam to fight with

    WOW ! I now have brakes and the old girl has stopped marking her teritory where ever we stop.

    Now for the hand brake. I'm sure I'll be back for more help

    Cheers
