PROCEDURE
INSPECT VACUUM PUMP VANE
| *1 | Vacuum Pump Vane Cap |
| *2 | Vacuum Pump Vane |
Check that the vacuum pump vane or vacuum pump vane caps are not damaged or excessively worn out.
Tech Tips
If the vacuum pump vane or vacuum pump vane caps are damaged or excessively worn out, replace the damaged parts with new ones.
Using a micrometer, measure length A of the vacuum pump vane with the vacuum pump vane caps removed.
| Length A | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
