Ok so title explains it. I got my car running again a few weeks ago and have had a vaccume leak since then. Its a BAD one to when you start the car it starts then stalls and you can hear a loud puff of air shoot out from somewhere by intake manifold. So i was thinking Intake manifold gasket was bad changed it and it is steal leaking bad. It sounds like it is coming from the PCV or somehwere in or around intake manifold its self. When you have the car in boost load on the engine it doesnt leak at all but once you let off gas or take load off you hear it. I mean the car runs good, and drives good just idles high and has rough starts on colder mornings. If anyone has any idea of what it can be let me know as soon as possible.
PS: I already sprayed it with starter fluid and nothing happened. And im not 100% sure but a boost leak wont find a vaccume leak.
