Be sure to get it plumbed correctly or it will not function. And I just got done replacing the one-way valve coming off the manifold! Oh well, now there's two in series. The hooded port towards vacuum actuators in dash, the non-hooded port towards engine manifold. Yes I was using this on a "does not fit" project. The 1992 Roadmaster and Caprice (GM B bodies 91-96) have vacuum canisters up under the dash above the glove box but you cannot get to it without removing the entire dash. So I bypassed it and placed this dorman under the hood where I can get to it easy. For those that need the info, here is the vacuum line color code. Orange Line: Controls the defrost door. Gray Line: Controls the fresh air/recirculation door. Purple Line: Connects directly from the under-dash vacuum canister to supply the main vacuum source to your climate control selector. Black Line is vacuum supply from manifold to the under-dash vacuum canister. I accidently pulled the purple line off the under-dash canister and did not want to pull the dash, couldn't even see the port/canister under the dash with a snake cam. Original problem on the Roadmaster was the vacuum selector valve as part of the climate control apparatus. One half has a sector gear that rotates when you slide the selector lever which is attached to a linear gear. The other half is fixed with colored vacuum lines running where needed. Between the two is an application specific (It appears roadmaster is different than caprice in this case) molded silicone seal that channels vacuum as needed. The two halves were held together by a plastic center clip that kinda looks like a rivet with two hooked ears. The ears snapped off. Judging by the buildup on the seal since that rivet snapped, musta been 20 years ago. Replaced the plastic rivet with an M4 thin flathead and nylock and voila, back in bidness. I'm just glad all the vacuum actuators still function and without leak. Right here on desertcart pick up a vacuum / brake line bleed tool to test actuators, they are inexpensive and effective. I use 3mm and 4mm silicone vacuum line as well as 4mm hard plastic line. When joining use clear RTV like GE2 or JB Weld. Stick the hard line in the soft then rtv around the interface, permanent joint. Review: Excellent product! Used to fix A/C vent in my Ford 2000 Van - The Dorman HELP! 47076 Vacuum Tank Unit was used to fix my van as the A/C only came out of the default defrost vents. It comes with its own internal check valve and no other parts are needed to make your AC run again. NO hose cutting is required. Thanks to the rednecks on Utube, you can disconnect the red line (wrapped) that is located just behind the oil filler neck. Remove the doghouse, run disconnected line back toward inside of van. Remove a bolt on the passenger side of engine cover near top. Use an awl or a small screwdriver through the bolt hole to push through the engine insulation. Peel back some of the black plastic insulation, which can be trimmed later. Pull off the connector on red hose and pull through the removed bolt hole. (It is tough to pull off, but it will come off, and then can be placed back on after threading through bolt hole). This end fits perfectly on the big port on the Dorman. On the passenger side inside the cab on the right are two hoses, a white and a black one. The black one goes through the firewall. Wiggle the bushing that goes through the fire wall and pull it inside a bit and unplug it from the ‘other’ side. This side will fit perfectly on the smaller connection on the Dorman. Fire that puppy up and notice the air now comes through the vents! The Dorman will fit up on the right side under the dash where you have to slightly push it past some wires, where it will now stay. Done! No cutting and no other parts used. Ignore the dead ends of the old hose. The hardest part was taking the doghouse off, which is made easier by the outside plastic housing on it just lifting off giving you more room to horse that pig out of the way. ## Features - Direct replacement - this vacuum reservoir is designed to match the fit and function of the original part on specified vehicles - Ideal solution - this reservoir is a reliable replacement for an original part that is missing or damaged - Durable construction - this part is made from quality materials to ensure reliable performance and long service life - Trustworthy quality - backed by team of product experts in the United States and more than a century of automotive experience - Ensure fit - to make sure this part fits your exact vehicle, input your make, model and trim level into the garage tool ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000COB8FA | | Automotive Fit Type | Universal Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #26,136 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #20 in Automotive Reservoirs | | Brand | Dorman | | Brand Name | Dorman | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Car, Truck | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 600 Reviews | | Exterior Finish | Machined | | Fit Type | Universal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00037495470766 | | Included Components | 1 Vacuum Storage Canister | | Item Dimensions | 7.38 x 5.28 x 6.18 inches | | Item Type Name | Vacuum Storage Canister Compatible with Select Models | | Item Weight | 1.6 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 7.38 x 5.28 x 6.18 inches | | Manufacturer | Dorman Products | | Manufacturer Part Number | 47076 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Lifetime | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | 47076 | | Number of Items | 1 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | 15-72235; 10000669 | | Part Interchange Info | 10000669 | | Product Grade | Replacement Part | | UPC | 037495470766 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Car, Truck | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Dorman - **Exterior Finish:** Machined - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 7.38 x 5.28 x 6.18 inches - **Material:** Metal - **Vehicle Service Type:** Car, Truck ## Images ![Dorman 47076 Vacuum Storage Canister - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71uY5aMdGFL.jpg) ![Dorman 47076 Vacuum Storage Canister - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Bu+JyfHSL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What diameter vacuum lines does this use?** A: That has 2 hose ports. 1 is 7/32 and the other is 3/8 **Q: Does this require a check valve or built into the canister?** A: It has its own check valve but I put an additional check valve just in case the tanks check valve fails or tank should begin to leak. **Q: What is the size of the vacuum ball tank?** A: about the size of a grapefruit . **Q: Brakes on car don't release all the way until rpm increases. is this a vacuum problem or a master cylinder adjustment?** A: Would need a lot more info on the car and how it is equipped to answer the question but the particular vacuum tank you are asking about is small and plastic. That type is mostly used with the control systems for AC and heater operation to store a small amount of reserve vacuum to help operate the various door or temp actuators. Sometimes there is a similar item used with power door lock actuators and the like. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ NOTE!

It was a tremendous value. My old Ford truck’s AC works but I’d lose the dash vents airflow to the floor and defrost vent when I’d accelerate. I knew my old Tun can vacuum canister must be leaking. I bought this new one off Amazon hoping it would fix the issue. It did! Now my AC stays blowing at me and I’m pretty sure my truck now has a lot more power. I could not be happier. Also, it was super easy to install. I don’t usually write reviews for Amazon but I’m doing for this! ## Frequently Bought Together - Dorman 47076 Vacuum Storage Canister Compatible with Select Models - Dorman 47149 Vacuum Check Valve - Universal - Dorman 47380 65 Piece Vacuum Connector Assortment Value Piece, 65 Piece Universal Fit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/14349644-dorman-47076-vacuum-storage-canister](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/14349644-dorman-47076-vacuum-storage-canister) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
