Any good ideas on how to drive a vacuum pump off a 13b? Is there anybody
already doing it? If so, I would like to see a picture or drawing if someone
has the time to post it, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to come
up with a simple solution but I haven't had much luck so far. I hate to go
all electric, I feel like I'd be putting all my eggs in one basket If you
know what I mean.

Rumor has it that a smog pump works great. The downside is it is
a bit heavy at 8 pounds.

Has anyone tried a piece of SS tubing canted into the (end of the) exhaust?  Add
an accumulator and burp valve, and it seems you should have enough to drive your
instruments.  Heard it discussed once on another forum.  No consensus that I
recall.
Just a theory ....   Jim S.


Jim, I think your CMOS clock & calendar went ka blewie. Check the battery on your
mother board and use the BIOS setup to reset your CMOS clock.
