Default '82 Vacuum Canister Hookup?

My '82 has had the vacuum canister removed, replaced with a 3-way junction. If I re-install an original type canister, does it matter where each of the three hoses attaches at the canister?

No. But you want to place a filter and a one-way check valve in the 'supply' line going to the canister.

Those might still be in the system, I'll have to check. Thanks for reminding me!
