My 97 XJ is having vacuum issues. Everything is fine at idle or low RPMs but the second my foot gets into it under load, vacuum seems to drop out and my HVAC defaults to defrost. Since I am on 33s with 3.55 gears, the Jeep is basically under load all the time. This is annoying because I get hot air in my face all the time when I would rather have it at my feet like I have it set. I inquired about this issue over in the OEM section and someone suggested the internal check valve in the canister may have gone bad. I could just buy an inline and call it a day but I googled Jeep Vacuum Canister to see what they go for and saw Summit Racing sells one for people who upgrade the cam and need more vacuum. I am one to always look at upgrading when I have something I need to replace. I plan to build my old motor as a stroker and subsequently upgrade the cam as well so would this be something worth it?
This is the one I am looking at.
