Is your vacuum motor functioning? Mine wasn't working, just sucking air causing a vacuum leak. Until I get another one, it is disconnected and a nipple on the vacuum tree.

The vacuum motor is what Autozone calls it. It is that round thing on your air cleaner that closes the flapper door to reroute heat from your manifolds while your truck warms up.

If you have an open element air cleaner, this is all a mute point. But if you have the original air cleaner there are 3 things to check because a vacuum leak here wouldnt be detectable with propane or carb cleaner
