Source for cruise control vacuum generator?
Anyone know a source for the cruise control vacuum generator on an 82
FC 35? I called Bluebird and they don't carry them. Their parts department had no idea where I might get one. They seemed to think the vacuum generator came from Ford. Tom Warner posted 3-G Productions, but while they rebuild Bendix cruise controls, they don't carry vacuum generators. If you don't know a source for the generator, can you tell me what the two output lines on the generator are for? Are they both vacuum lines? If I can't find an identical replacement I may have to put something together and I need to know if I need two vacuum outputs or something else. My bus needs to suck again. Kerry 82 FC 35 Denver |

Found these vacuum generators on the internet. Anyone care to express
an opinion as to whether they would work as a substitute for the original vacuum generator on an early 80's FC? http://www.anver.com/document/vacuum%20c...-jv.h\ tm Kerry 82 FC35--that doesn't suck at the moment Denver > |

Kerry,
There was a forum update offering a generator in the last 10 days or so. Do a search you may find it.

Thanks. I saw the offer for an electric vacuum pump. After giving it more
thought, I think the best course of action is to replace the vacuum cruise control with a Rostas Global cruise which is electronic. The existing vacuum control was not working consistently and when I looked thru the bluebox, I saw that the original owner had taken it back to Bluebird a number of times for problems. So, since other members have had success with the Rostas, I think the best course of action is to eliminate the need for any vacuum at all. Kerry 82 FC 35--not sucking anymore Denver |
