Manifold Vacuum Switch

Anyone got an original manifold vacuum switch (w/ solenoid to control idle motor)? Mine is cracked at electrical connector to idle motor.

Thanks.

Vacuum Switch

Here are pics. There is a two spade male plug which sticks out of the top of the solenoid section. Mine is broken off. For asthetics, I would like one that plugs in properly to female part of harness.

Thanks.

I changed my manifold over to Edelbrock and thought I would just go down and buy another switch from the local parts store...WRONG! I had the same problem you're having John. Those things are more rare than hens teeth!

I ended up having to refurb my old cause no one carries the right vac. switch with the electronic hook up! Good luck in your search my friend! If you locate somewhere that sells them new, let me know!

99% sure these are not available. Years ago, I remember in the old Year one catalogs they only carried the replacement part (w/o electrical solenoid). If I find a spare used one I will let you know.
