vacuum pump on diesel but not needed on gas engine, why? is because gas eng. has a manifold? I want to learn.



I was told by a friend who has driven his ford p/up for 330,000 miles to consider carrying a spare belt and/or vac.pump for my p/up (2006 GMC 6.6 Lt. TD) is this a potential problem I should be concerned about? Plan to tow a good size 5 th wheel tlr. in near future, n would like to be prepared if this is a concern. thanx


Answers:


1your pickup has hydro boost it uses the pressure of hydraulic fluid to assist you in breaking you should not have any problems at all with this system. maybe a few small leaks thats about it i have a 01 duramax 6.6 and have not ever incounter such a issue that your friend speaks of. one time the steering was difficult to move but it was -10 below and i think i had a little moisture in the p/s system i just let the truck warm up a little while before driving and it worked fine.
