Florin25 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I just changed the rubber gaskets for the intake manifold on my focus, and during the process I broke a hose that goes into the engine. Engine starts, and air is coming out from it. It is safe to drive to ta part store? Can I change the hose myself ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 No not safe, from what I can see it looks like the vacuum pump pipe thats broke , therefore you will have no servo assistance on your brakes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 And the bit that's broke is part of the vacuum pump assy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iantt Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 yep, easy enough, just 2 or 3 bolts hold it on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florin25 Posted April 9, 2016 Author Share Posted April 9, 2016 Any bits of advice? Trying not to brake anything else this time. Goggled it but can't find nothing on this kind of repair. Should I buy the whole pump or I can find just the plastic bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Comes as part of the pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
