Engine vacuum

[KAWMAN2]

can you eliminate the vacuum ball for the a/c door and go strait to manifold vacuum?

 

[Mcmahst]

No. Longer answer is, the ball is the reserve you’ll need when climbing a hill with the AC on. No ball, door closes half way up the hill and ain’t no one happy with no air.

No hills in Florida, I bypassed the ball and ran it hard today’s/c worked fine, but I will teplace the check valve and ball

My answer would be a question, why eliminate the ball and check valve?

 

[KAWMAN2]

very hard to find down my way!

Yours leaks?
Nobody thinks of saving those things.....cept me. PM me if you need it.
If you delete it the blend doors are set for defrost mode at vacuum loss so you hit the gas and the vacuum drops the blend door will switch back and forth as vacuum falls and rises but will not effect how the engine runs.
