I checked the rubber tubing going to the valve cover and that area seems to be okay too. The block only had one in and three out. I did find that one line was completely disconnected, but after connecting it there was no difference. I have another issue in that the AC works very well when the car is first started, but as it warms up the AC air gets warmer. Not to the point where there is no AC but noticeably warmer. Don't know if the two problems are related or not.

Pete, would you please explain what you did (test?) To conclude `All appear to be fine`? Reason, cracks/leaks at the block and/or vacuum connecters are almost invisible to the naked eye. Did you use an eye dropper and water? Re the disconnected vacuum line...how did you determine which connector to use. The overwhelming cause of the problem you`re having is at that block, i.e., bad line(s), connector(s), or the distribution block.

Bob
