Yes, I'm guessing only your defrost vents work?

Vac resevoir is piped to a T on the firewall, towards the passenger side.

One side of that T goes to the TAB and TAD solenoids on the rear of the passenger side shock tower.

3rd side of the T goes to a check valve... a disc looking thing with a vac nipple on each side.

From the check valve, there's another T.

One of those goes to a small vac source... under the upper intake at the rear.

The other goes to the EGR regulator.

There's a drawing around the web if ya just google it...

The vacuum lines go inside the engine bay, right in front of the smog pump is a square box. That box is a charcoal canister for the HVAC system. One of the hoses from the fender run to that. There is a 4 prong vacuum line connector from the inner fender that connects into the engine bay by the EGR, more HVAC stuff.
