I have one, but have yet to get it to work. I did check the ports and connected a test but no vacuum boost...actually no vacuum.Called Chevy Duty technical since I bought the double action from them ...but they didn't have any connection diagram or suggestions. They said to call Patricks, and when I did...they did not sell them anymore and would only recommend I go 12v and use an electric one. So that is why when Warren suggested "Lubriplate" grease on interior...I tried that. Now I have a small reassembly problem in exactly how the wiper air regulator is put back togather to allow the vacuum wiper to work. As I stated on a earlier email, If anyone has experience on how the pieces go back togather or a break out diagram, that would help me greatly. r Gary 1950 Chevy 3600

The 3600 with all of it's smalldifferences make it fun and unique. Mine is stock ....except for myoak bed and some stainless accents...and my latest challenge is to getthe vacuum wipers to work. Ha ha...yea...the splits are interestingbut depending on where you live, you can still get them worked on attruck stops or farm service centers...> Good luck!> Gary> 1950 Chev 3600---------------------------------Be a better Globetrotter.
