I took my rig to a dealer this morning and he told me that my leak was fluid from the vacuum pump. He quoted me 800 or so for a new pump and 3.5 hours of labor. Why do I need a new pump if the seals are bad? Help guys, $1300 seems scarey!!<br><br>TJ ???

 

Where you leaking oil or ps fluid? You can buy the oil seal and o ring for the vacumn pump. Do a search for &quot;vacumn pump leak&quot;.

 

I'm leaking oil.<br><br> searched and found that There is a seal I can replace, rather than replace the entire pump. I just wonder why the only dealer option is to replace the pump too.<br><br>TJ

 

The reason why the dealer did not suggest that is because they only know how to replace entire units.<br>

 

Where ca you buy the seal and O-ring?<br><br>Thanks in advance<br><br>Ed
