Re: new ZR1 owner with a few questions.
The car runs fine without the pump, but it is nice to have it working so you can here it cycling on and off if you have a vacuum leak. I'll try to fix the one I have and order a new one if it can't be fixed since the price is less then 100 right now.

Re: new ZR1 owner with a few questions.
Well I got the car back from the paint shop and she is looking mighty fine. I took the vacuum pump off and brought it to work to day. There was a lot of corrosion and the motor was seized up. Cleaned it up real good and cleaned the contacts on the switch and a little spray lubricant and it is running perfect now.
Now when I put it back on I just need to find and replace the fuse since it should be bad since the motor was seized. By the way anybody got any tips for repairing a sagging headliner on the painted top? Slowly but surely she is shaping up.

Re: new ZR1 owner with a few questions.
Just replace the headliner. It's easy to do since the top comes out of the car. There are a few threads on this.
