I was pleased to see the metal section on the IAC to intake manifold hose that you replaced. I had to do something similar to prevent that hose from collapsing. Hopefullyy your DO88 replacement has an internal metal braid like the brake booster hose. That should aleviate the problem better than a metal section.

Timing of this video is awesome - I was just watching your old video Saturday as I was replacing the seals on my air pump. video was helpful...but wish I saw this video first. Hope my bottom bolt doesn't leak! I found removing the return lines to the coolant tank freed up space over the pump.

Thank you for the video. Are you sure that AGM is appropriate for this use case? EFB was previously installed and is more temperature resistant than AGM. AGM use case in the car trunk.

Really the only grommet or gasket u might have to change if your power steering is leaking, is the o ring between the pump and reservoir...it's only held together by clamps...I seen my leak was between the pump and resevoir and changed the o ring and it stopped leaking..

Both cars you mentioned are also GM Saabs 😂 yes, it ***shares parts*** with other cars, but that hardly makes it an Opel or any other brand. GM has had their hands in Saab since the late 80's, and other brands before that (see Ford V4's in classic Saabs and Triumph engine in the 900). All cars today pretty share parts with other brands in one way or another.

Yeah. Those dreaded pumps that run off the cams. I did mine not long ago. Then I came up with a cool idea. Replace both pumps with electric ones. You would make a plate from steel and drill two holes in it for the 2 bolts that normally hold the Vacuum pump on. Then make a gaskit to seal it. No rubber seal would be required then. You would use a gum based sealent, not silicon, to paint the caskets with. You would run an electric pump in the Vacuum line. Just feed it 12 volts from your engine fuse box. I'm sure there would be a spare source of two but you must have a relay so they are only powered when the ignition is on. Electric cars must have an electric Vacuun assist. I do know for a fact that some GM cars have electric power steering pumps. So you could seal the power steering drive with a plate as well. If you could do this you may pick up as much as 10 horsepower. There would be better torque across the rev range and better fuel economy. No more oil leaks. I wonder if anyone has tried this? Food for thought. Cheers from downunder.
