Turns out, this seal is a simple o-ring, formed to the shape of the vac pump body. Using a screwdriver to pop it apart after the bolts are out (I know, these pics are overkill): There are 3 T-30s that have to come out to split the pump in half: I am doing a motor swap on this golf so I pulled the vacuum pump apart since he's getting a new (used) one with the motor he just bought.įirst of all, this one was not leaking appreciably Hanging at my shop waiting for my GF's plane to land since my shop is close to the airport. UPDATE: see posts 12 & 13 for correct part to use
