There is no idle vacuum line on P/S. I don't know how you tightened a serpentine belt when their is no provision for doing that. The tension is controlled by the idler tension pulley. If you are referring to a normal drive belt, then set the deflection at mid point of the belt to approximately 1/4". Check with Chrysler for the exact specs on deflection.
A gasoline engine makes it's own vacuum. The diesel engine has a vacuum pump next to the power steering pump.A gasoline engine makes it's own vacuum. The diesel engine has a vacuum pump next to the power steering pump.
That is the vacuum supply for the HVAC control.

The connection between the power steering to the vacuum hoses is called the hydraulic brake booster. It supplies the vehicle with fluid pressure from the power steering down to the hoses.Ê
Residual vacuum from vacuum reservoir.
Chevy 6.5 turbo diesel more than likely has a hydroboost brake system. It means instead of having a vacuum type brake booster it uses hydraulic pressure supplied by the power steering pump to aid in braking. I would think it is more than likely the power steering pump or a power steering fluid leak or a slipping serpentine belt.
It is the engine that is vibrating and it is just being felt in the steering wheel. Can be a vacuum leak, or miss in the engine.
A vacuum diagram for the four wheel drive of a 1991 Jeep Cherokee can be found in any Chilton's manual for that year of vehicle. The vacuum system allows the vehicle to switch from two wheel drive to four wheel drive on demand.?æ
Simple answer No. There are a few larger vehicles, 3/4, and 1 ton trucks and SUV's etc that use power steering fluid from the power steering takeoff to power the brake assist system. In those cases the engine belt does power the brake system, but it will still work without engine power with more pedal pressure required. In the rare cases the brake assist is powered from the power steering, the brakes and anti lock will still function, rather the engine is running or not or the belt has broken or not. Same goes for diesels that use and engine driven vacuum pump to provide vacuum for braking assist and other systems requiring vacuum.
It could be due to a vacuum leak or a faulty idler or tensioner bearing on the serpentine belt.
