While there are no dues or fees for membership at El Camino
Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

Posted: Sun Jan 28, 2007 10:24 am Post subject: Vent flaps vacuum question:
My 73 obviously uses vacuum lines to open and close the various flaps that send air up or down through the ducts (including defrost). What I need to know is where the vacuum line that goes out to the engine is. Does it come off the switch in the dash? I need to get mine hooked up so I can get my defrost working. _________________ ~Jake Stazewski

probably going to be a trailer
The line runs from the intake manifold over to a Vacuum Reservoir on the fender then into the cabin to the vacuum switch at the selector. You can buy those if yours is leaking, I recall seeing them at EC Parts.net over the weekend. I forget exactly what they are called but I did see them listed in their catalog. _________________ Home Site: http://www.elcaminoplace.com
