ESOF not woking
Specs
2002 ford f350 7.3l
Need some assistance with the ESOF not working. I did some pre testing and these are some of the results I have found.
Tester auto body now vacuum pump.
Connecting the tester to the vacuum pump these are results.
Takes 1.5 minutes for the vacuum pump to recycle
Gauge inHg
10 recycle
15 top
Connecting the tester to the inlet and back pressure tested the reservoir. Pumped the tester to
10inHg and this held for 7 minutes with no 4wd engaged. After the 4wd ESOF is engaged the pressure dropped rapidly and was unable to pump the pressure back to 10inHg or any other measurement.
So obviously there is a leak in the 4wd system, so I wanted to see if there are any suggestions?
Thanks

Did some further testing today. Put the vac tester in series with the pump and the reservoir. The vac pressure does rebuild and pulsates when driving. Starting point between 10-15 inHg in 2wd (hubs in auto) when I switch to 4high I can hear the defrost kick in and the vac pressure goes to 0 after 15-30 secs pressure rebuilds and the 4wd engages. However it does not stay engaged. I also determined if the HVAC is off the 4wd does operate better but at anytime when I switch between 2/4wd the vacuum pressure drops and takes up to 30 secs to rebuild? Is this possibly the way ford intend this to work? To further troubleshoot I left the truck in 4low when I got underneath it I took the front knuckle u-joints and could rotate the shaft (both left and right knuckles would turn. But the transfer case was locked in.
If it is the HVAC where the leak is happening does anyone know where the vac line comes in to? Is it the vent controls or the blower? Not enthusiast about pulling the dash apart to find out the hose to defrost is not the problem.
