So I recently did my emissions removal with 5/6th port semi-removal. And now I have a vacuum leak that I can't find. I have new gaskets on everything except the omp which I rtv'd the crap out of. I kept the BAC. It runs and drives, just won't idle. I have all the vacuum nipples capped, that did to be. I am absolutely stumped. Any ideas?? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.gif

check the lower intake gasket, i have seen some people put them on backwards and it creats a v- leak
|
Will do. Thanks
|
did that once.. it sucked. the carb cleaner spray trick works too.
|
if i where a vacuum leak i would hide somewhere you couldn't find ! ! !
Use carb cleaner and go to town on the engine. listen for varying rpm's |
bouncing idle could also be caused by a looped line or tps neeeds to be readjusted
|
I wish it was a bouncing idle. It won't idle, cold, when you first start it, it idles around a 1000rpms for maybe 30secs, after it drops under it dies. I have empty 2 bottles of carb cleaner already, and wasted a pack of my buddies cig's trying to find this. I did notice some fuel under the manifold that I assumed was from when I took of the secondary fuel rail but I'm going to check that out 2day.
|
So I had a loose hose clamp on the primary fuel rail. But that didn't help.
|
well, I swapped my fuel lines when I did my emissions removal! that threw me for one helluva loop. it would crank crank crank crank and sputter. so I'd crank and crank and crank on it some more...
|
You can here the leak at 1700rpms. But we can't find it, which is probably what makes me the madest cuz I can hear it plain as day.
