Anyone know if someone is restoring the A/C vacuum canister/reservoir repair for A-Bodies? Apparently, both of my assemblies have a leak at the rubber grommet (dry rot).

check back on the thread about repairing the vacuum for AC unit . . . same idea . . . you might want to put a couple smaller o rings around the rubber diaphragm where it extends around the rod, to try and seal it, or maybe a black zip tie ???

The other thread mention was mine. I still have all the stuff layed out from fixing mine. If you want to send it to me (and pay to send it back) I'd be happy to try for you.

Hi Mike-

First off thank you for your response and the offer to help me! Very much appreciated. I can send out the vacuum valve on Monday, if you would please provide me your address. After reviewing the valve, if you do not want to attempt to fix it, please do not hesitate to let me know. My 70 Dart restoration is near completion and this is one of the last items that I need to address.


Thank you once again for your help!!


Vinny
