I had a 1983 Cadillac with the 4.1 V-8 that had a belt driven vacuum pump
to supplement manifold vacuum. I don't know how common that is, using a
vacuum pump to supplement manifold vacuum on car engines, but the 4.1
came from the factory with such a pump. So . . . junkyards would be a
good source

Thanks for setting that straight Dana and thanks for the pointer - I was
not aware of either TruTrack or EZ Pilot - will go find them right now.

if you want a cross country airplane that won't wear you out, check out
EZ Pilot Autopilots (do a search) and TruTrack

You can use an air or smog pump standard equipment on many autos from the 70s
and 80s, and just reverse the hookups so that instead of blowing it is sucking
air. They were belt driven in plentiful supply, easy to rig, light weight, and
low on hp draw.

I have seen reference to a "smog pump" on several occasions - hoped that
it would become obvious at some point and save me from showing my
ignorance - what is a smog pump?
Steve J
Do you need to regulate the vacuum on the smog pump?.. well it run the DG and
AI?
A gentlemen e-mailed me off line and his 1960 172A has a belt driven vacuum
pump and it has worked well with only needing periodic belt replacement.
Thanks,

Perhaps some of us would like to fly IFR flight plans and never fly into
IMC... or perhaps we live in a marginal foggy area all summer and would like
to
fly every once in awhile when the visibility is slightly under VFR... or use
IFR designated flight routes through military training areas no

I've replied to the wrong email this should have been for work.

So, I assume that this pump drives off, what would be, the magneto drive.
The reason that I am guessing that, is because it requires that you have
electric ignition.
