I have a 2001 HR Ambassador 38PBD with a Frieghtliner chassis and Monaco coach. Does anyone know if the vacuum lines for the driver's compartment AC/Heat unit are via a vacuum pump or one of the air tanks. Looks like there is a register of some type beside the vacuum air bowl.

Thanks bunches ya'll.

Ron

The air tanks are compressed air, not vacuum.

There is a 12 volt stand alone vacuum pump. it is usually on the firewall or in first drivers side compartment. The dampers of the heating and air conditioning for the dash are vacuum operated.
