Brian, not sure if pumps interchange between Chev and GMC,
but I believe =
the
pumps from later Chevs still fit older ones in 235 size
anyway. Most of t=
hem
are only the Metal body ones. Originals were all with glass
bowl on them =
on
top. I have bought some that were the same, yet had a small
aluminum cove=
r
over area bowl used to go to, so NO bowl. Also have seen the
"cheap" look=
ing
flat metal pumps, think only on 235's tho like I said
above.=0D
A double action means it has a vacumm pump on top where the
bowl normally=
is
to create vacumm for the wipers 'cause when you step on
throttle or go up
hills working engine it loses it's vaccumm an wipers either
slow or stop!
With this extra pump, it won't do that. A line runs from
pump to wipers
instead of from intake like normal. I have seen fellas put a
small tank l=
ike
used on 70's A/C systems in cars to try to hold vac ready
and more steady=
=2E
Not sure if it works better or not. These "tanks" look like
black cans,
fairly big. Look just like a can from a grocery store. They
have mounts a=
nd
nipples for hoses on one end. Mounts to firewall most times.
OR, GM had t=
he
little round ball plastic ones too. About size of croquet
ball. =0D
Hope this helps. This is one reason I like pictures in
catalogs of vendo=
rs,
at least you can see diff and get idea what they are talking
about!=0D
