KRheads, It has been stated: "I've been struggling to find a way to drive my vacuum pump on my KR2S..."
In this day and age, why would you consider steam gages as something that you want on your KR? There are many options for electrical substitutions for steam gages that would give you a much better option to make your KR a light weight IFR bird. In my case I have installed dual alternators a preference over a vaccume pump and a single alternator. All electric gives you much better flexibility to keep important things working regardless of which power source fails. Don't think you need vaccume because they used to do it that way. What is the best way for you to get your KR on the mission you want it on now? That is the only thing that matters. Regards, Bob Lee N52BL KR2 Suwanee, GA 91% complete, only 51% left!
