Ha, it was 300CE that pointed me in the direction of the replacement vac back in July last year!
Anyway, I remember the reason I couldnt remove it was because I couldnt access the 13mm nut and nearly rounded it trying to get at it with a flexible ratchet spanner. I didnt realise you had to slacken the 10mm to rotate the unit so that the vac was out the way.
Anyhoo, I got it off. And put the replacement vac on.
I messed up marking the position by marking the mounting bracket.
I did take a photo though, so should be able to put it back fairly close.I'm going to replace the felt pad before I put the unit back. Any idea where I would get one?
) tested the same unit by sucking on the pipe, he manages to get the arm in the unit to move but I cannot due to lack of (extra careful how I word this) sucking power!! In all seriousness, it may be worth getting a second person to do the test before determining a result. As I said further up, my unit was shot but it took Itchy's lungs to prove it.
