Default Pumping brakes at idle changes AFR????

Why would pumping the brake pedal at idle progressively make the AFR chanke from 12.5 to 15.5 with 3-5 pumps of pedal? Vacuum leak?? Voltage change?? Any ideas and the engine was up to operating temp no problem.
Thanks
Brian

Could have a leaking diaphram in the booster causing a vac leak.

Most likely your main ground cable is in need of replacement. If the car isn't stumbling when it happens then it's electrical. Start by going over all your ground cables and points.
