Sorry, with all the talk about vacuum and boosters I just have to clarify
something.  Vacuum, in this case is the absence (or relative difference) of
atmospheric pressure or 'air'.  The air PRESSURE on the other side of the
diaphragm, opposite of the lower pressure or 'vacuum' side is what actually
does any work, not the vacuum 'sucking'.  Sorry about all that, I just had
to get that off my chest - not ranting or chastising anyone (Im guilty of
the same sort of explanation sometimes) Just want to be a little more
accurate in the explanation of how systems work.
Whew. . . must of had too much coffee already :-) NURSE, wheres my
medication!!!

Just like there is no such thing as centrifugal force.  If you ask I
will explain.
