UPDATE,

The pump is for sure burned out. However there is a leak under the plenum somewhere as well...

I used the vacuum hand pump and brought it to 10hgs and watched it slowly fall, my spirits fell much faster! DAMN! I dont have the tools like a damn torque wrench or the literature needed for this job. I sure as hell dont have the money to pay somebody,... besides I want the satifaction! Anybody know where someone can get the plenum gaskets? and other such parts? Do they sell new vacuum harnesses? or will I have to rig a new one?
Oh and I used a voltimeter on the connecter to the pump and it read about 13/14 volts. so it was getting juice, Im sure the leak under the plenum made it run itself to death.
Anbody have any advice for someone taking a plenum off for the first time?? I have never even messed with a plenum/intake manifold before... LOL helluva car to learn on! Fvck it, Im goin in!
