Mine is a 9/'76 and has factory a/c but no bottle. 

My 280...

 

Interesting.  Where does this hose go to?  That's the one that would go to the bottle.

It goes to the bottle I've never paid attention to.

Paying attention is like having bullets in a gun. I missed that one though. Damned if I'm not getting old.

From manifold it goes to the check value (mounted under the two magnetic valves) and from there to the bottle.

My early '77 doesn't have that bottle, just the charcoal cannister. Anybody Anyone know what year they started using those bottles?

@Zed Head the cross out text isn't the same as strikethrough? 

1974

 

Well just got done with under dash hoses. Vacuum is not getting to the dash. I am sure both intake and mode door vacuum actuators were working before.

Did you try to actuate them with a hand held tool. Solenoids may be defective.

Solenoid meaning the magnetic valves?

I am very sure the vacuum actuators were working before I took the lines off.

My bad one of the lines at the vacuum tank connector was ripped. Everything works fine now. 🫡
