The vacuum pump is located behind the passenger battery on the fender. Very common for the line to develop a leak and the pump runs excessively sucking in dirt ect and burns out. You should hear it "prime" up when you turn the key on, it should pull to a certain vacuum "pressure" and shut off, if it runs continuously you have leak and that's your problem. If it doesn't run at all that's the start of your problem. Follow the line across the cowl and to the servo under drivers battery. I believe there was a connection into the cowl also for a vacuum reservoir.
