Default Found the problem.

My old thread sunk, so I'm making a new one.

We pressure tested my car again, I must have done it wrong somehow because there is a huge hole in a hose under my intake manifold.

Its coming off of some Y thing. I guess part of it pressureizes the crankcase.

Is this common? For those of you that don't know, my car, when floored would hit 20psi, sink a tad to about 17psi then the *** would fall out to exactly 10psi...

Do you think the leak under the intake manifold would do that?

I'm just stoked I found AN issue, even if it isn't THE issue.

Default pressure tester might not find leaks in hoses attached to the intake manifold

since the throttle is going to be closed.

Default Probably the major one....but may not be the only one..>>>

more than likely....start with that...as the rubber succumbs to heat, more will need replacing......dare i say there will be one or two others....IMO

Default Since there are several small vacuum hoses connected to the manifold, I think you would find leaks.

I just did the pressure test thing this past weekend and was finding leaks in the small hoses above the engine. Some of those go back to the manifold.
