I've got an '81 BJ42 thats in alot of pieces. Lots of questions but right now I need to know about vacum and how it is used and stored(?). There is a vacum tank bolted to the left frame rail under the drivers seat. Is this tank used to store vacum? I read somewhere that diesels don't make vacum at the intake like gassers do. My friend,he had an old ford p/u with a diesel,says that is not true. I realise that there is a vacum pump on the back of the alternator. What other function does it perfom,there are steel braided lines down to the block beside the oil filter.
Anyway any and all help will be apreciated.
Thanks Caveman
