Zero Tolerance Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 it sounds as though u have a loose vacuum leak somewhere...if u've checked all the obvious places....check on the TB and in rear cases see the opposite end of the TB where you have that AC valve attached...that's on the left hand side of the throttle body when facing the car....once I was racing and had that break off sending the revs up...
