Vacuum Cannister...where does it go?

[Baron VonZeppelin]

yeah it runs fine without one, but the climate control has need of vacuum and I do want to get it working correctly because I do plan to use the A/C (OK gets hot in the summer)

Hey Trav, what kind/year model of car are you working on ?

Should be a rubber hose connected to top of your vac pump.
With a plastic nipple that has side prong(s). The top of the nipple is the connector for your pwr brake booster - a side prong is the feed for your HVAC ducting/flapper connection.

It's an 81 wabbit..

the tricky part is that I'm trying to fit in a cabriolet dash into it, and it looks like the climate controls are all different. (to a point), not quote sure about the heater/ac box.....but I'm trying to get a handle on the stock vacuum setup, before I try to convert it over to the cabby controls so I know what goes where. Looks like the main difference is the vacuum manifold, is a different style, and the cabriolet had a temperature capillary.

the rabbit will/should have cable controlled heater parts. the cabby will be completely vacuum operated. you may have to swap out the WHOLE HEATER BOX..

This one was a Deluxe, so it had cable for the heater valve and heater controls, but had vacuum actuators and servos for the vents
