Not sure about anybody else's but on my pickup the vacuum can shielded the ignition module from direct radiant heat off the engine. Wanted to move that sucker back out of my way since '75. :) And always thought "better not do that :/".

So several years ago, I moved the ignition module! :)
Moved it to the other side of the fender-apron. :)
Now the juice can is back out of my way finally. :)

It's also used on vehicles with EGR, my '77 had one and it didn't have A/C, cruise, etc. It was plumbed into the EGR signal amplifier.
