Author Topic: vacuum leak 1993 el ex ¯ Member # 9489 posted                              my car was having idling issues and it was suggested it might be bc of a vacuum leak. i resolved my shaky idle (cleaned out my iac) but i still think i have a vacuum leak (vac gauge is still reading wrong at idle). anyone have some insight to where i might check first? e.g. a common source of a vac leak and how to fix it?

This tool called a mighty vac comes in handy. You can get it at autozone. Guarantee you'll use it more than once working on cars. http://www.mityvac.com/pages/products_hvpk.asp [ October 23, 2010, 11:07 PM: Message edited by: Secnd2nun64 ] Posts: 1460 | From: CA | Registered: Jun 2002  |  :
