Re: {Chrysler 300} 1962 A/C Switch & Vacuum Hoses

i do not think that comes apart , if a bad hose maybe use brass tubing pieces to couple new ones , otherwise use as it is .

Amazon sells a package of various size brass tubes about a foot long , good to have anyway

On this , first never wiggle that block trying to get it off , that breaks off the small plastic nipples

Second coat rods of actuators with silicone grease , rubber gets hard where they exit the can , you get a vacuum leak , slow or intermittent action results . Cannot get new stuff , cant open can to fix either.

There is a tiny hole in the bottom of vacuum inlet line slows flow . Not sure a good idea but when combined with slight leaks it does not move right

Maybe it woukd slam withiut the restriction .

All by way of heads up

The 7 vacuum hoses from the engine bay & under the dash….
All collect into a rubber bulkhead that slides onto the back of the A/C Switch plastic nipples.

But my question is….
If you wanted to replace one or more of the vacuum hoses….
Do they slide INTO that rubber bulkhead item?
Or was that molded with the various length hoses from the factory?

Thanks
