Just looked on the parts section, no luck. Found one on ebay, however, the GM part # is different. Need 19153500 and it's listed as 16177111. Will this work?
I used one that was from a 94 on my 90 and it worked fine. I used the vac nipple from my 90 because it was hard plastic and not the soft type that seems to want to collapse.
For all to know, toptechx6 helped me diagnose my problem on my A/C(clutch would not engage) The guy is a walking gold mine of information and is always willing to lend a hand.

I found a way to keep them from collapsing. I took small diameter hypodermic needles, cut them to length, rounded the edges, and inserted them through the nipples. It provides a permanent solution to prevent them from collapsing. It cost me 25 cents each at Walgreens for the needle tips.
I did this on my mom's buick, but they are similar. On her car, it was in a position where I didn't even have to take it out. It cost me a buck or two and about a half an hour when the dealership wanted about $500 for the part and about $500 for labor. It was the soft rubber that had failed, and this method worked. It is still working 7 years later.
Depending on what's wrong with yours, you may be able to repair it yourself by resoldering or replacing a couple resistors, or Dr Don's repairs them also.

Thanks for the kind words, glad you able to resolve your A/C issue.
