4X4 Problem

Bought another truck 1996 Dodge 1500 extended cab 4X4. The 4X4 wants to engage during acceleration when in 2WD and the 4X4 wants to disengage in 4WD. I checked the vacuum at the canister. I have 15 psi at an idle on the red line in 2WD and the black line in 4WD. I also applied vacuum to the canister to each side and the vacuum did not leak off.
Anyone have any suggestions on what I can try next?
