If all looks good you can spray carb cleaner on suspect areas with someone holding the idle at something steady and spray those areas. If there is a vacuum leak the engine will either run better or worse when you spray the leaking spot. Could be a hose, diaphragm, gasket etc., and if nothing found you move on to the other possiblilities of many possible problems. Use care and caution as carb cleaner is flammable and if over done on something hot can flash. Be ready for that and if that is unaccepable risk for you get some help as it can be done safely, T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
