It was fun to get inside the unit to see how they work though. Not much inside there but a vane style pump. Simple really. The serpentine pump has a different o ring style fitting for the pressure line so I just remove one from and older pump and voila! I keep plugging on this and that is the Idea. A little a day and one day soon...TOP DOWN-wind on my skull.
Building these truck is like eating an elephant, you got to do it one bit at a time...... Nice progress, keep it up.
