For vacuum? Nothing.

The engine creates a vacuum inside the canister to purge gas vapors.

The complete section on evaporative emissions - from the 1987 Emissions & Driveability Manual:

Note the high altitude and non-altitude versions - may be a factor if the truck was originally sold for use in certain parts of Colorado.
