Subject: [FlyRotary] smog pump vacuum
Hi, and happy New Year to all you rotarians.
I've been working with the alternator, and have come to the conclusion
that
I can get it in the standard spot (just), but that I either need an idler
pully or the smog pump for the surpentine belt to run cleanly. Since I
need
vacuum and have a smog pump, I'm thinking that this is the easiest
solution.
So. What do I need in terms of a vacuum regulator? Any suggestions on what
to buy from where?
How have others run the belt path. (Note: I need the ac unit, so I cant
move
the alternator to the cold side.)
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

My smog pump (used as a vaccum source) pulled much more vaccum than the
aircraft vacuum pump I had used, so I strongly suggest a vacuum regulator.
You can find them in Aircraft Spruce and many other sources. I use the one
that has an integrated filter holder.
