Hi,
I have a 1996 Jeep Cherokee(4 cylinder), with 202,000 miles. I am getting an annoying whistling sound coming from some where near the vacuum port. I tried using a stethescope to pinpoint but still unable to tell exactly where or why I am getting this noise. Any thoughts?

Use a small length of vacuum hose as a listening tube, you will be able to get this in and under things, when you find any vacuum leak you can't miss it, try this method.
