HI Team:

In the past month I have worked on three vacuum systems.  With each vacuum 
pump there is a set of instructions that say "clean the tubing so no debris will

enter a gage".  My question is this:
If a vacuum pump draws air FROM the canister air filter, through the 
instruments and vacuum gage AND pumps the exhaust air out the pump through the
rear 
tube ... HOW does derbies manage to go the REVERSE direction from the pump back

to the instruments?

In the past year I have had occasion to have my glareshield out  
several times for avionics and electrical work. Every time we put it  
back in we have a problem getting the screws into the tinnermans that  
tend to move out of line with the holes. Is there any problem with  
replacing the tinnermans with rivnuts and using machine screws to  
attach the glareshield?
