got a replacement vacuum pump however the top plates are different so can’t just swap that bit, so need to change the whole vac pump. Is it a simple undo the 13mm bolt, pull it out and locate the new pump correctly, ensuring it locates with the oil pump ok? Nothing will fall into my sump/engine doing this will it lol?
oh just had a thought, i have a aaz engine in the van now i cant remeber if i used the jx vac pump or just left the aaz one on. Are they interchangable?
cheers jason

1.6 vacuum pumps are different to 1.9 pumps and are not interchangeable.
1.9D (AEF) pop-top. Aaaaahhhhh........that's better.
