Are these symptoms of a vacuum leak?
car idles like crap in the heat and dies sometimes while at a light. when feathering the gas on the freeway, can feel the car stutter like it hit a small wall and then catches again.
in the cool, the symptoms are MUCH less prevalent.
exhaust smells very rich.
If these are the correct symptoms, how can I diagnose? I checked under the hood and couldn't find a leak for the life of me. Tried hooking up a compressor to the intake, but didn't hear any leaks coming from the hoses. All boost hoses seem to be on tight, so I'm guessing it's a vacuum leak but I can't find from where.
ANY HELP MUCH APPRECIATED!
1999.5 1.8tqms APR stage 3 124k on the odo.
