You must have a ruptured diaphragm in the modulator. Vacuum should be confined to the modulator itself. There is no other vacuum connection at the transmission.

A new modulator vavle should solve the problem. Buy a new pin while you are at it. Chances are good that the old one will break, if you have the plastic version. Then change the engine "fluid" and filter.
