You can get inexpensive venturi (need an air compressor to operate) vacuum pumps made for AC work from Harbor Freight. The one I have is just like the first link but is red and had a R12 fitting on it. The vacuum fitting is 1/8-NPT on the other side. | You can get inexpensive venturi (need an air compressor to operate) vacuum pumps made for AC work from Harbor Freight.
