Vacuum pump repairs needed

Yes, I put the proper oil in it.

Nathan is right.  Be certain to use only oil  engineered for vacuum pumps!
Have you put oil in it? Mine requires oil to work and I had to buy it separate. Here’s what I ended up using. 



Anybody here know someone who works on vacuum pumps? I bought one from one of these bargain bin places several months ago and yesterday I went thru a bunch of stuff to get connectors to fit my vacuum chuck, plugged it in and nothing. Rather than buy a new one I want to see what it would take to repair this one.
