This has been posted many times, try searching next time.

It should be at 18-20 vac at idle.

well actually.....the vacuum at idle can change with different weather conditions and different altitudes.....for example....in my area.....me and 2 of my friends all have about 15-17 vacuum at idle and its normal.....so it really depends on the conditions

yeah, north if you get down to 15psi its not a big deal... recently drove from southern VA to upstate NY, i was at 20psi down in VA... but up in NY i get to about 15-16psi as well

i think he means In-Hg ( inches of mercury )

psi refers to boost... here in the midwest i read 18In-Hg at idle

whoops, yeah my bad... definitely in-hg, in my own defense it was late
