WH nut 553 #4 Posted April 12, 2013 You can put a mechanical one on, the cam lobe is there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomB 2 #5 Posted April 12, 2013 The cam didn't look like it was centered so we weren't sure we could use a mechanical. Which one do you recommend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 16,343 #7 Posted April 12, 2013 The pump arm on a K161 mechanical pump is offset to be able to hit the cam. Your vacuum pump can be rebuilt. If it is just the diaphragm, contact member buckrancher for a new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
