I just recently had same problem, turned out brake fluid was being sucked into intake. Burning or trying to burn in cylinders.

this seems to be fairly common with the hydovacs.i have found this on both chev and ford.you may have noticed when you step on the brake at idle the engine speeds up a little.i never did the repairs on these but a new boaster always seemed to fix the pr
problem.
