My vacuum controlled Vents were functioning at a level that they would only blow from the dash vents whenever I didn’t have the throttle more than 1/8th of the way down. I of course hate having to choose between AC and accelerating, And I also hate the idea of removing the entire dash from my car, so this evening I installed a 12v vacuum pump from Amazon into my car. Now my vents blow nonstop. It draws less than 1 amp, so For power I simply connected to the positive side of the coil, and ran ground to one of the screws on the coil bracket. The pump is zip tied to one of the AC lines next to the coil. The vacuum line from the vent system to the manifold ended up being the perfect length to straighten out and connect to the pump instead. I have a link to the pump I used below. I will update this thread if it stops working, or if I find any way to improve it.
Hopefully someone finds this information useful.
