bad vacuum generator
my forward venturi vacuum generator has finally given up...been reading past posts on this subject and want to make sure of fix. Is it still agreed that these are not available and should be replaced with an electric unit? If so, is the only option a cruise control vacuum pump from a 740 series volvo in a wrecking yard? Also where do you buy the pressure regulator needed? thanks

I bought mine new from SCS Frigette since i couldn't find one locally. $114 shipped in '09. It has a built-in regulator.
