On the vacuum line there is a round piece that has a spring inside the bottom and two lines that goes in from side on the top and one line on bottom which runs to a plastic filter and it goes on the side of carburetor. I’ve been to parts house and they can’t find it in computer. Any idea what that part is called?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

That's a tough one. Can you upload a picture of the part or tell me where the vacuum hoses go from the carburetor?

I attached a general picture of the vacuum system on this vehicle. However, there are many variations to it such as high altitude, CA emissions, and so on. Take a look and see if you can pinpoint the part you are looking for.

Let me know what you find.
