12V brake pump
« on: March 22, 2009, 02:14:14 AM »
My brake pump has been weak every since I installed it.  I took it out of the Elec Bug today and directly tested it with a vacuum gauge, and it shows a weak pump.  So, I will be sending it back to EV America for replacement (I think it is still under warranty).

In the meantime, my car really shoudn't be driven without a pump.

So, does anyone know where I can get a good 12V vacuum (brake) pump?  New or used is fine.  I would ideally like to get something quickly - as Ford will be interviewing me tomorrow and looking at the car.

If anyone knows of a spare pump on hand, please call me.

Thanks!

Todd,

I have one that you can borrow until you get yours back.  I know that the motor runs fine, but I have not tested the vacuum level that it pulls.  Let me know if you are interested and I can test it.  I live in Brookfield and work in Westmont.
