have an electric vacuum pump that is hooked to the crankcase somehow?

I was told this weekend that they did and wanted a little more info on it.

Yeah, I heard about this from someone yesterday.

Scothew · 05-23-2005, 11:03 AM

I would guess this is to help evacuate pressure from the crankcase due to the pretty much constant boost hte motor see's??

Gee, thanks Captain Obvious.

Lee is asking if this is true and what exactly the pump consists of.

No, I was asking to make sure I was thinking right as to why it would be there. Note the ??'s at the end of my post.

Yeah, they do I have seen pictures.

I'll see if I can find some.

Thanks Brad.

Anybody know the proper name? We couldn't find it in the Ford parts computer

I am seeing some stuff where it may be called "secondary air injection pump".

edit: I think thats the air pump from previous year cobras, not 03/04. It can be used as a vacuum pump as well.

Yeah I have read where people use the electric smog pumps from different cars to do a setup where they can pump out the crankcase. The pump that came off mine could be used to do the same and put right back where it was.
