Thanks

for a while, years back, i was hearing what could be a leak when i first started off at low RPM, but couldn't find anything at idle. will chk again.

31K miles on it, really clean in/out i still wonder if i should have traded the equally clean '84 in on it.

diff between men and boys...

the years some gaskets are going to shrink.

When looking for a vacuum leak, get one of those spray bottles and put water with just a touch of soap. Spray it on the hoses and places where there could be a vacuum leak. When you spray it on the leak it will get pulled into where the leak is, if the car is running at all rough that should go away when you spray the leak because it will be temporaly sealed.
