Default My recent rough idle saga-vacuum leak

I started noticing a bit of rough running, poor idle, poor throttle response, etc. I suspected so many other things that I thought I would post the final fix.

It was a vacuum leak, bad intake gasket, but I suspected these things:

-Bad muffler, it was popping and farting a lot.
-Bad throttle switch, it was much worse than normal on transition on and off of closed throttle.
-Fuel pressure problem
-Ignition problem

Most of the searching I did mentioned vacuum leaks, I was able to hear mine it was so bad, but check carefully when you have problems!

Glad you found it. These things can be maddening.
