G'day,

Here's a SUPER brake booster Aux Vacuum Pump for our GMC's

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Continental-Electric-Vacuum-Pump-12VDC-Ford-A426C-/370691272503

I purchased two of them and they really SUCK! ;-)

At $115 with free shipping they are a bargain compared to anything else out there. If you read the blurb you will note that they
were meant to go in an electric vehicle sold in Europe that has been discontinued (Ford Azure). That means they were the ONLY vacuum
source for the brake booster so they had to be designed to be ultra reliable. I took one of these suckers apart and found that the
internals are very simple and crank / connecting rods run on bearings!

Because they have dual diaphragms they suck a lot more than any other pump on the market.

Unfortunately you will have to come up with a mounting bracket as none are available commercially.

If you buy one you will note that the plastic 3/8" barb fitting has a little tab that fits in a slot on the pump that keeps it from
rotating, with a small Dremel tool you can remove the barb and the fitting will rotate 360 degrees.

Rob,
Looking a the photos, I don't get a sense of how big this thing is. Also, is this the same pump that Dave L has been using in his Brakes seminar at GMCMI?

Rob,

Thanks for the link. I'm tinkering with brakes a bit again so I ordered
one.

Just a few days ago I was redoing vacuum lines and decided to disconnect
the OLD Delco pump I've had on, but probably inoperative, for years. I
mounted the JC4 (which I've had for about 5 years) on the electric wiper
base, but haven't yet gotten around to connecting it -- partially because
I'm not enthusiastic about the 18-19 in-hg it produces. This sounds like a
better choice.

Have you yet designed a mounting bracket?

This is identical to the one I purchased from Dave Lenzi at the Montgomery convention.
He also sell a nicely machined adapter that fits into the booster that has a check valve and a pressure regulator and a vacuum gauge. I'll take a picture and post it to the photos site. I didn't find it necessary to rotate the fitting. A simple bracket was made from two steel "l" brackets with 6" legs. I cut on leg to about 5" and drilled holes and attached it to the pump with metric bolts and secured the other leg to the firewall beneath the steering column. It works well.

Emery,

I take it it's quiet enough, or runs so seldom, that you found no need for
isolators?

I've been a strong proponent of a reserve tank rather than a pump, but that is such a nice looking unit that I had to buy one Smile

I also bought one today to replace the JC4 which I have mounted up front. I will look forward to seeing the pictures of your unit Emory.

Wow, he's selling these like hotcakes! I just bought one as well. I also
bought an Oldsmobile emblem from him ($5.00) that I think will look good

Here's a SUPER brake booster Aux Vacuum Pump for our GMC's

Bob,

The PVC reserve tank I've had installed for the past 12-13 years is the
reason I haven't worried about the status of the Delco pump. This new
pump, like that one, will be redundant with the tank. But I plan to
monitor it more closely. And if it's as good as Rob says, it will probably
provide more vacuum than the tank usually holds.

Ken H.

Yes, this appears to be the same the unit that Dave Lenzi used in his test rig at Montgomery. As Rob said, it really sucks. It goes from nothing to full vacuum in a second or two. So quiet you can't hear it running inside the coach. I can hear my JC4 with the engine on and it leaks down so it runs from time to time.

Dave also has some super duper check valves. I have yet to install mine. I'll make up an aluminum bracket and probably put some rubber isolators on it just to protect it from bumps and jars.

As far as size goes, it's about 5" long and 4 tall and 4 wide...or thereabouts. Doesn't weight much.

This is just what I love about this forum. I just installed a JC-4 last year and now I find that it has been replaced as the forum favorite. Rolling Eyes

Carl -

I know EXACTLY what you mean...

Kind of related to the recent thread about unfinished projects - my JC4 is still waiting to be installed and I purchased one of these too !!

There'll be a new JC4 in the classifieds pretty soon. I think I even have the mounting bracket...

Go for it Steve. I'm going to stick with the JC-4. I'm sure it is adequate.

Another thing I love about this forum is that even though I have never had a major problem with the coach in six years and 22,000 miles, I am getting nervous about the week long trip we have planned beginning this Saturday. I read about all this gloom and doom and can't help but wonder what horrible thing is going to happen to me. I should probably take a hiatus from the net for a few weeks before a trip. I suspect this trip will come off without a hitch like all the other ones, but I can't help but feel uneasy.

Bob,

As a former GM executive buying a pump for a FORD must have been painful!

VVVVBG!

I've been a strong proponent of a reserve tank rather than a pump, but that is such a nice looking unit that I had to buy one :)

That same guy has been selling those for a couple of years on ebay. He must have bought a couple of pallets of them. Obviously Ford did not use them after they bought them. I wonder why.
