Brake Vacuum - take it off the inlet manifold on the engine.
Or do you mean Brake Servo? If you do have a look at Gazman's thread for ideas ...

Hi, I used an early belt driven one from a 205d , removed the fuel tank compartment cover and reshaped the tank slightly ,
The only diesels I've seen with brake vacuum from the inlet manifold have been old ones with an intake with butterfly throttle , one that comes to mind was a S11 land rover _________________ Auto Union Munga Jeep ,T4 2.4td , T4 2.5tdi ,Mercedes S Class on LPG , 66 splity deluxe , GP mk1, 3 type 25s 1 with 1.9dt pug engine + 1 with N/A pug engine ,,there are 6 t25s with pug power in Darlington

Yes thats the one , the cylinder head when fitted with that type of vac pump will need a brass setscrew to block the oilway that fed the vac that bolts directly to the head , then a pulley to bolt on the end of the cam ,
from what I can remember there's three different cams - I used one from a Citroen BX but the same can be found in rover 218 / 418 Peugeot 205/305 + some 405's , not to sure but the smaller LDV vans with the Peugeot engines might have the vac pump at the other end of the engine _________________ Auto Union Munga Jeep ,T4 2.4td , T4 2.5tdi ,Mercedes S Class on LPG , 66 splity deluxe , GP mk1, 3 type 25s 1 with 1.9dt pug engine + 1 with N/A pug engine ,,there are 6 t25s with pug power in Darlington
Have taken the engine out of the ZX. Now i wonder what this thingy is ? it was mounted on l.h inner wing.
Also, what do you guys use for brake vacuum pumps in a Bay?
Also figured out this thing, its a termostat switch for cold start timing advance
Well tried and tested on various Subaru convos _________________ The advice you receive on here is worth the paper it's written on.
