Default Re: Vacuum pump

Great Job! I would suggest one addition to your punch list. Build a cooling air intake screen. Over at the NetReg site in the maintenance section there should be a write up on the how to.

Basically, I went to Home Depot and bought two pieces of gutter leaf guard, a roll of fine mesh fiberglass screen material and some plaster repair washers. I took down the center air dam, and the support bracket that holds that splitter thing across the middle of the radiator air intake opening. I used the clips on the gutter guard to make one long piece from the two small ones. Then I wrapped it in the fiberglass screen material so the seam is toward the inside of that air channel. I used the bolts for the air dam section and that center splitter bracket to hold it in place and just put everything back. Just don't forget to clean the screen every week or so so the air can get to the radiator.
