Paul & David--The vanes in your vacuum pump are made of compressed linen as I recall. Those Moro pumps are very durable but still require routine maintenance. For what it's worth, here in Alberta--I've always made a practice of running approx. a litre of diesel through the oil injection inlet (with the lid screwed off) with the pump in vacuum mode at low idle until you see the diesel being blown out through the exhaust port at the end of each days work. This has a 2 pronged benefit---keeps the vanes cleaned of sludge, (preventing stuck vanes) & flushes out moisture & in our case eliminating the pump from freezing under our severe cold conditions. A few minutes work & time well spent I've found..
If filling is slow sometimes on a old tanker the inner layer of the pipe above the ball can suck in leaving it normal speed spreading and slow filling and the vacuum clock will show normal.If you don’t need to open the gearbox it’s easier to fit vanes from the back after unbolting the pump from the drawbar. You can flush out a pump with 5 litres of diesel by putting it on to spread position with the back open and pto on and pour the diesel down the outside of the exhaust and it will be sucked in and deposited in the tank.
@@finnegansfarm9137 I also have a long right angle scraper with a curved bottom for scraping out silt would be handier on the young lads cleaning it out
Is that an ex Dublin council/ corporation Ford 3910 with a Curran and Ganley cab to keep the tender price low. Our local Ford dealer supplied a good few to Dublin council.
