BRAND NEW OEM VACUUM PUMP 1999 - 2010 Ford F-250 through F-550 Super Duty 2000 - 2005 Excursion Many other Diesel applications Fits 7.3L, 6.0L and 6.4L Powerstroke Diesels Original Factory Part - NOT Aftermarket! - MADE IN THE USA - In the last year, the market has been flooded with a cheap imitation of this pump which is built in China. We have diassembled one of our OEM pumps and one of the aftermarket pumps side by side. The difference in build quality is substantial! What does this part do? This vacuum pump operates the heater controls and four wheel drive front vacuum hubs on your Ford Diesel truck. What happens when it fails? Your heater defaults to defrost only, and your four wheel drive may not engage if the pump does not run at all. The pump may also fail and run continuously - in this case, there may be a leak in the system which the vacuum pump can not keep up with, so it runs all the time. Disconnect the outlet hose and plug the connection on the pump with your finger. If the pump stops running there is a leak in the system - probably a broken line, etc. If the pump does not stop running when you perform this test, it is bad and needs replacement. Does this pump fail often? Yes, this is a very common failure item - Ford issued a TSB number 05-17-4 to advise their technicians of this issue. Replaces Ford P/N 6C3Z-2A451-BA. Is it easy to change? Yes! Anybody with a few simple tools can do it! As easy as changing oil! The pump is located on the passenger's side inner fender between the battery and the blower motor (7.3L applications). It is easy to get to. Just unbolt it, unplug the wiring, and carefully dismount the old pump from the rubber "feet" and mount the new pump. Plug the wiring back in, and re-connect the vacuum hose to complete the procedure. Can this pump can be used for other applications? Yes! - vacuum control systems, science projects, etc. - It turns on when current is applied and generates a vacuum of about 17 in hg. It then shuts off until the vacuum falls to 13 in hg when the cycle repeats. It will NOT work to power a brake booster due to inadequate volume.
