Archived Oil inside the vacuum pump

[Acesinthesky]

I have a oil leak between the vacuum and the power steering pump.

I removed the vacuum pump and started to install a new seal kit and found that the entire cavity of the pump was filled with engine oil. Is this normal and where does the air exit the pump?

I have been having low vacuum pressure for some time.



Any out there know how they work?

All is well.

It is a wet pump, and oil will flow through it.

Thanks members
