Stupid brakes

I replaced my vacuum pump yesterday.

I thought I would let everyone know that it is a 2 beer job.
Only because the puller required some stupid size wrench.

Be sure to not smack yourself in the eyebrow with the 1/2 inch ratchet also when it pop's off the socket.

Neal and I had 3 or 4, and started nothing.

That didn't go so well. haha.

I think we just stood there and stared at the engine for a good 45 mins, then went inside and ate.
