On my 90 GST when I am on the highway and I build like 5 psi and get off the gas real quick, and with it still in gear it will not pull vaccum. When it is doing this and I give it the least bit of throttle at all it builds like 5 psi and when I look at the guage it flutters back down to 0. Then just out of nowhere it will pull 12-15 on the vaccum side, at like 70mph in 5th gear. any idea on what could be going on?

thanks
 
yeah its your guage, pull it out and inspect the line hose for kinks or holes, i knw when i first installed mine (autometer) i kinked the hose when i crammed ir in to my a pillliar pod.
i kinked it so bad that i read 1 vac and like 1.5 psi
