THE VACUUM / PRESSURE PUMP(FIG.1)
The Vacuum Pump is hand held, accurate, robust and
easy to use. The basic unit consists of a pump-body(A),
moveable handle(B) and a gauge(C) which displays
both vacuum(in HG / BAR) and pressure (PSI / Bar).
Pressure and vacuum modes can be selected via the
mode selector (D) as follows:
1. For vacuum testing-turn the mode selector until the selection arrow is aligned with operation arrow
labeled "IN" (Fig. 2.1)
2. For pressure testing – turn the mode selector until the selection arrow is aligned with the operation
arrow labeled "OUT" (Fig. 2.2).
CAUTION
Although the Vacuum Pump is manufactured from high
quality materials to exacting standards, please
remember that it is a PRECISION INSTRUMENT so
please ensure that it is handled accordingly. Dropping,
rough handling, exposure to high temperatures (hot
engines, naked flames, etc) or misuse may jeopardize
the accuracy of the pump and may also invalidate the
warranty.
USING THE AUTOMOTIVE VACUUM & PRESSURE TEST KIT TO DIAGNOSE ENGINE FAULTS
Before condemning the engine management system for causing any particular problem, remember that
the engine's mechanical components must be in good condition for the engine to perform properly. A
vacuum gauge can be used to check the mechanical condition of an engine, however it is not foolproof.
By connecting the pump to a manifold vacuum port (this must be the engine side of the throttle butterfly)
with the T connectors provided, a wide array of diagnostic examinations can be conducted.
By examining the range of vacuum readings and the movement of the gauge needle in comparison to
the pressure readings of a normal engine running at idle( typically steady and between 16inHg and
22inHg), it is possible to diagnose a variety of faults.
This is by no means an exhaustive list of tests. The hand pump and adaptors can be used to test
practically any component or system that requires proper sealing, vacuum or pressure to operate.
