Vacuum Pump

The vacuum pump was purchased as a kit from EV Source.com with the reservior. The reservior is actually from Summit Racing, but it is about the same price from either source.

I do recommend reading the installation instructions from both EV Source and Summit prior to doing anything.

Thoughts:

Mount the reservior close to the vacuum pump.
Locate mounting surface for the pump, which must remain vertical so the oil doesn’t leak.
If you drill holes to mount anything, be sure you have access to the backside to place and hold bolt or screw.
While laying out the hose plumbing, keep in mind the wiring has to connect to certain places as well (positive battery, live wire to activate relay, frame ground).
Don’t install the reservior before you remove your light.
I think that the relay activation wire should tap into a line that is live with the key in the on position.

More later…
