Let me start by saying that I'm not exactly mechanically inclined. My first indication of this was when I was about 13 years old and I thought that if I took my bike apart, and cleaned all the parts that I could make it better. Taking it apart was no problem. Putting it back together again presented insurmountable difficulties. I ended up putting the bike in a box and bringing it to a shop to re-assemble.
OK...so, with that said, I was thinking that I might try and rebuild this vacuum pump myself... Seems simple enough. ??? I don't have a manual or repair book yet and haven't been able to find any detailed instructions on what this profect will look like.
Has anyone out there ever reuilt one of these? Is there going to be a bunch of parts in there that are going to come popping out and I will need to keep track of? Is there any bleeding (other than my knuckles) that will have to be done?
Going to NAPA today to see if they have the kit. Not sure if I'm going to try this myself yet, or ask my VW guru friend to help. What do you think?
