Yeah, I pulled them off and jammed the mity vac into the rubber boot on each one. None of them held a vacuum...although #1 didnt wouldnt even let me pump it up to 15" whereas the others would.

My procedure was starting at #6 and pulled the rubber boot off the manifold and jammed the mity vac on it and pumped it up...it would go right back to 0...the same held true all the way up to #1 where this particular line didnt hold at ALL.

Then I removed the vac source lead in the very top (red line with green stripe) and pulled vac from there...with the ignition on...these were the results...

Defrost = Held vacuum!

Any other setting = vacuum dropped away!

Is this one dill of a pickle or what!?
