I'm a bit confused by this. I have the smog pump from my donor, which I took apart and cleaned up nicely before putting it back together. Now, when I turn the pulley clockwise (looking from the front of the pump, directly at the pulley) it blows air, not sucks. Is this right? Everything talks about vacuum lines, not pressure. Am I missing something? Is it even possible to put it together the wrong way to reverse the flow of air? Thanks in advance for answering another dummy question.
