Brake Booster Vacuum Switch ??

What's the correct name for the vacuum switch that the brake booster hose connects to?? I need one that just has the outlet for the brake booster/mine has several unused ports. Part#??

Are you talking the black thing on mine just to the left of the master?

If so that is a check valve for the booster. They come with different sizes to fit different boosters.

Should be able to get one from the local parts store help section.

If that is not it post up a picture of what you have and explain what it is you are trying to do.

This is what I need. I need it with just the one larger port (different year truck, etc).

A common name for that thing is a vacuum tree, can likely get it at the local parts store; you'd plug the unused ports.

I'm plugging at least 4 ports. I'd like one with just one or two ports. Does anyone know an earlier year, etc that will fit. Thanks!

(sigh) Geez Louise! See the pic of the booster in post #2? The black thing mounted on it is the check valve.

Numbers, when he said "booster" I thought he was looking for the check valve.
When I said different sizes I meant for any car or truck if he hit the parts stores so he would not just grab and run.


It turns out he is looking for a vac tree that screws into the intake manifold that only has 1 or 2 ports and not the 5 or 6 he has now.


I would pull that one out and hit one of the old parts stores or NAPA and see what they have.
