Vacum Take Off the manifold.
Turbo Mini Forums

Hey guys :)

Need a point in the right direction of were you guys bought your vacum take off fittings, taps and drill bits

As well as this can you also tell me if I can use whats currently on my manifold:

Ignore the arrows:




This is bennys:



What I want to know is do I have to remove whats currently fitted in mine and fit a banjo connector like bennys (if so what size connector and bolt do I need to buy)


I was going to put a vacum take off on the flat spot on the left of the brake servo thing.

Cheers

Craig

drill and tap the flat spot under the servo tube on the manifold 1/8 bsp.

should be able to get the drill, tap and a barbed fitting for about a tenner on egay.

I have 2 ports on that flatspot :)

I did exactly what apbellamy said. Just run a drill and tap directly down the flat spot and thread a barbed take off in there. I did this last summer and got my fitting from ebay as stated. 10 minute job :)

Lovley what did you guys do with the brake servo take off? Did you remove it then put a bolt in there? What size is that? :)

post it to me and i will post you my bolt?
assuming its the same thread

edit, rather oddly its m16x1.5 my bolt i wonder what its supposed to me

Keep the banjo fitting for the servo takeoff, loose the other fitting that bolts into the top of it and fit a 1/8 bsp pipe fittings, to be more accurate you want to use the type as used on the braided hose conversions and the corresponding bolt, or a variant thereof.
