vacuum pump replacement
Hey all, I Have a 95 2wd supercab f250 powerstroke auto. 327000 miles <-----yeah thats right!!! All original motor, turbo, and injector pump even! Runs Like a tank still. one tranny rebuild when i blew the torque converter to pieces pulling an obviously too heavy a trailer though! I had heard some squealing yesterday and upon poppin the hood real quick, i assumed it was the ac clutch and went and picked one up planning on changing it today after work. well, like a dummy i drove it to work and had to limp home a couple miles with no belt. thank god its cold as hell here today. well, I looked under the hood and the vacuum pump pulley was obviously not where it should be. Now this is a dumb question, is there anything i have to do(bleed anything etc...) other than just change the pump? I would greatly appreciate the feedback!

Not to be a stick-in-the-mud but, this thread needs to get back on topic.
This thread was designed for Bombers to post their addresses, phone numbers and various other information to help other Bombers, should they break down on a road trip or something of that sorts, get their rides fixed and back on the road. Hence the title "Diesel Bombers support LIST".
If you broke down far away from home, this list allows you to personally contact a Bomber near your crippled ride who can either fix your truck, or at least steer you toward a reputable mechanic that won't screw you over and maybe put you up for the night while your truck is being fixed.
We have a "Diesels in Distress" section for Bombers who are broke down away from home that need to post Technical questions like the several above, that is monitored constantly.
I'm not attacking anyone or flaming up here. This list is a good resource for people who travel and someone who IS broke down looking through the list may not find someone in their area due to the list being plugged-up with tech questions.
Mods, if I'm way off base here, feel free to delete this.

Have a truck and a strap, can get a flatbed, up to 41 feet. Still working on the shop, but I can get you off the road anyway. Know a couple of reputable shops in town. I drive (local) for a living, so during the week, I may or may not be able to help quickly, but I can at least point you in the right direction, or get there as soon as I can.
Some diesel experience (12 Valve Cummins, 6.2/6.5 Chev, 6.9/7.3 and early PSD. Detroit, and DT International a little too.)
Everett to the Canadian Border.
