Default Ugh jeepach.

So i moved my vacuum bottle from the front bumper to the engine compartment disconnecting the ac and cruise control lines just leaving the intake line connected to it. Will this cause it to put a check engine light on? I don't have a computer to do the scan.

where did you put the canister? i am not sure if it would cause a light dont thinks so but i would be wrong. The pcm wont care if the a/c is unplugged but is your cruise cable operated?

the cruise controll never worked. Ac was never cold. I just left them hanging. I hooked the line off the intake to the bottle using a short line i got from the rest of the system. the bottle is presurized everytime i take the line off to check. When i take the line off and let the presure go down the check engine light turns off for awhile. Should i just ignore it?

Thumbs up

Just make sure that you plug all the unused lines from vacuum sources. Leave vacuum line to bottle and whatever you want the vacuum supply to hooked on the bottle. You can put the bottle anywhere that you want. I did!
