Re: PFN Vacuum Relay

On my PFN I found that one of the lugs on the low side of the vacuum
relay was broken, cracked where it enters the metal case. I have
ordered another PFN at this point because the only replacements I
could find cost around $100 on eBay and the PFN is much less. Because
they do cost do much, has anyone ever repaired one that was broken in
a similar spot?

Remove the vacuum relay, leave a bleeder in place permanently.

There is a good chance the replacement PFN will also have a bad relay.
