Any good ideas on how to drive a vacuum pump off a 13b? Is there

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.

Paul's right, several of us use the small Mazda smog pump to drive the
vacuum guages-works great, and is reliable ( & cheap, too).

Good question Norm. I have not yet heard of a low cost substitute for the
AC $190 suction regulator.
