this can sits in the front right fender well. it takes vacuum from the vacuum manifold and sends it back to the a/c heater control unit to open/close the proper doors to distribute air as desired - defrost, floor, hi/lo, etc.
i suspect it is leaking. with the heater control in OFF, vacuum goes in but none is going out. all the distribution does work correctly when selecting hi/lo, floor, defog, etc. but the car idles better when the vacuum is pulled off the reservoir and plugged. but then of course most of the heater controls will not work as advertised. (a/c is disconnected and not an issue).
if anyone is familiar with this reservoir and how it is supposed to behave, as well as if it can be fixed/replaced, let me know.
