Yes they did.

First they took off the line from the ABS pump to the caliper, and blew compressed air thru it. No fluid coming out of the ABS pump where the LF line connects.

OK, good news!

Found a salvage yard out of Big Spring, Texas. He is selling me a ABS pump for $90 shippped! What a deal! Even threw in a 30 day warranty! I should have it by Wed of this week.

I'm happy again

Well, got the ABS pump from the junkyard. I must say that I was very impressed with the purchase. The guy that I delt with was very good! Most junkyard employee's are cranky and just an all around a**. This guy was great!
The pump arrived and was as clean as a brand new one. All electrical componets were intact, and it was packaged great.
The instal was pretty easy, and only required help from a friend to get all of the air bled out of the system. Got the instal finished up last night, and the car is great! Guess this ABS pump has been out quite a while now, because I don't think I've ever felt the brakes this good since I've had the car.

So all in all, I am very satisfied. And I am crossing my fingers that nothing else goes wrong with it(knock on wood).
