All power assisted brakes are dependant on vacuum which is usually derived
from the engine on petrol engines and should the engine stall and cut out
you will only have the use of any vacuum left in the power brake booster.
On a diesel engine, (as is used on most 4x4) an alternator driven pump is
usually used and the same situation will apply. This is shown in more
detail on our technical training pages.
More brake applications are used on off road and mountainous driving and
the loss of vacuum is faster than normal. By fitting the IRUNA Vacuum pump
and reserve tank assembly you will always be sure of having vacuum when
needed.
For peace of mind this is a MUST if towing a trailer or caravan.
The 5202000 IRUNA 12V Universal Vacuum Pump fits every make of vehicle with
Petrol or Diesel engines. It can be used as a replacement for all gear or
Alternator driven pumps or as a twin. Adapts to all vehicles on a stand-alone
basis and can be mounted on any solid part of the vehicle. With the automatic
self switch on/off relay when vacuum is low, you have reduced the risk of
loss of vacuum to your booster as you will never "run out of vacuum"
even on idle or offroad trail driving on the "Koppies" or
mountains.
Together with the T659 specially designed vacuum reserve tank you will even
have, vacuum assist should your engine stall. As long as you have the 12v
connection, you will have peace of mind.

The BRAKELOK and FUELOK systems were invented and designed by WINGATE, and
have been in use for over 40 years. To date no vehicle fitted with one or
both of these units has ever been stolen.
"IF IT CAN'T BE MOVED IT CAN'T BE STOLEN."
When fitted, the Anti-Theft Units are activated by simply switching
off the ignition key. Only the owner of the vehicle will know how to
"secretly" deactivate the systems.
Even if the thief starts the engine with a original or copy of the key or
hotwires the engine, the BRAKELOK when fitted to the vehicle will prevent
it from being moved if the brake is applied as the ignition key is switched
off. The first application of the brakes will stop the vehicle if not.
When fitted with a FUELOK (for Petrol or Diesel engine use) the engine will
"cut-out and stall" when the engine runs out of petrol or diesel.
This usually happens within 200 metres.
