99 Cherokee HVAC Problem

The older Jeep Cherokees (88-92) had a vacuum reservoir inside the
right front bumper. Two vacuum lines went from there to the HVAC and
other things like the speed control. The lines went under/behind the
battery. Over time the line wore out (acid ate through) and the Jeep
had both the HVAC and speed control problem. Look at the vacuum lines
then see if there is still a vacuum reservoir.

My husband looked and couldn't see a vacuum reservoir. Looks like we'll
have to take it in and have somebody take a closer look. Thanks!

Thanks, Bill. It wasn't overheating. That's the neat thing about my
Jeep - it pulls my little tent trailer like there's nothing to it, and
no loss of gas mileage either. <g>

Neither was a line of new cars stopped in traffic leaving Las
Vegas, but as far as I could see everyone had their windows down.
