I have a pump the HVAC guy l;eft at one of our sites, along with a 30# cannister of R134a. I forget the make, it's the one which exhausts through the handle. Now, if you keep a vaqcuum overnight and keep the dryer nice and warm for the same time, you will dry it enpugh that it works. You could heat it more and boil off the water which might be in it, but >if< it contains plastic parts you night make a mess of it.
Incidentally, if you have a dog, you can make freezedried treats from liver or chicken with an old pressure cooker by replacing the popoff fitting with a Schrader valve or R134a valve as appropriate for your pump. Hold a vacuum for a couiple of days on a cooker full of treats in the freezer. (You'll need to pass a hose through to the outside, seal it well)
