Vacuum Pump: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
The vacuum pump is a constant displacement, vane-type pump. Vacuum is generated by vanes mounted in the pump rotor. The rotor is located in the
pump housing and is pressed onto the pump shaft.
The vacuum pump operates by a slotted extension attached to the vacuum pump shaft. The vacuum pump shaft slotted extension fits into, and is driven
by, the exhaust camshaft gear.
The vacuum pump rotating components are internally lubricated and the vacuum pump has no serviceable parts. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair
the pump.
