Maintain reliable vacuum system operation with this Genuine Nissan Late Vacuum Pump Tube Under Sump, designed to suit Nissan Patrol GQ and GU models fitted with late-model TD42 engines using the vacuum pump mounted on the timing cover. This OEM steel vacuum tube connects to the vacuum pump at the rear of the timing cover and routes beneath the engine sump as part of the vehicle's vacuum system. It is also commonly used when converting earlier TD42 engines from the alternator-mounted vacuum pump setup to the later timing cover-mounted vacuum pump configuration.

Over time, vacuum tubes can become damaged through corrosion, impact from off-road debris, vibration, or incorrect installation during engine repairs. A damaged vacuum line can cause vacuum loss, reduced brake booster performance, and poor operation of vacuum-controlled systems, affecting both vehicle safety and drivability.

Manufactured to genuine Nissan specifications, this factory replacement vacuum tube provides precise fitment, reliable vacuum transfer, and long-lasting durability to help maintain your Patrol's vacuum system performance in demanding Australian conditions. This tube suits TD42 engines with the vacuum pump mounted on the timing cover and does not suit earlier alternator-mounted vacuum pump setups or RD28 models.
