Running rough trans fluid in vac receiver

I have a 97 jimmy 4.3 4wd that started running rough and no power. I replaced the plugs and wires map sensor fuel filter distributer and cap and all oxygen sensors it was still running rough then I noticed some bad vac lines I started to replace them and found trans fluid in the vac receiver ball is this the switch on the transfer case causing this and could the trans fluid in the vac lines cause the rough idle? thanks in advance for any help.

Yes on transpher case switch lettig fluid into balll and lines.
But on idle no unless fluid in lines has caused a vacume leak some place.
Replace/repair/clean ball and all vacume lines and replace transfer case switch
On no power.
How is fuel pressure?
Any codes or check engine lights?
Any engine or cylinder miss?
Camshaft retard setting?
Good Oem/AC delco replacement parts?

Did you use AC delco parts?
Any other codes besides missfire?
What is engine running on road fuel pressure?
What is camshaft retard setting at?
Any cylinders missing?
