If that is ok, I would disconnect and plug the lines going to the doors and the HVAC leaving only the ignition and brakes hooked up. See if it works when isolated like that. If it does, the vacuum leak is in the doors or HVAC. If it doesn't, the problem is in the ignition vacuum circuit. (all this presumes you dont have a MityVac handy to test those circuits). Golf tees work well to plug the lines.

You guys are AWESOME!!!
I ran vacuum direct to the diaphragm and the car shut down... WHEW! we are getting someplace....
I did ANOTHER go through of the whole vacuum system and found a very small crack in the 1 to 3 rubber splitter. I trimmed out the crack and VOILA! It was the kind of crack that left in a normal position you would not see and bent slightly would leak.
Thank you ALL! I did not realize that the black line was just a vent. Looks like I need to adjust that "screw Bolt" (hope I am not getting too technical on you here
) so that I can shut down the engine if this happens again. I bet my idle is too high as well. That bolt needs a very deep socket to loosen up the nut holding it.
Now I need to figure out why all of a sudden I dont have any turbo and why I cannot kick down to first gear... all of these items happened at the same time.... UGH
