How did you do on your cruise control project? I'd like to get mine working on my '78 but I have no knowledge about how a CC works.

OK, I'm back... Finally decided to look into the cruise control today after I welded new supports for my battery tray (rusting away). Right off the bat, I noticed its plumbed wrong. The cruise actuator is under the master cylinder on the firewall, and everything moves freely by hand, but it has 2 vacuum lines, and I know its not right. Both of them go to a little tin can on the firewall... and nothing else is plumbed to it.
How does this hook up? I'm guessing the canister has a check valve in it (if not, I'll get a universal one), but where in the system is this routed? Why 2 vacuum lines to the actuator?
Its a 1980 Winnebago Minnie Winnie on a 1979 chassis... what I thought was a CB300, but I found a sticker in the cabin that this little 20.5 foot unit is actually an MB400, probably because it was ordered with the 10,500 chassis.
