I searched this forum and believe I am looking for a fairly substantial vacuum leak.

Anyone have experience with this?
The codes are for overly lean conditions on both banks, which would be indicative of an intake air leak in the main intake area (throttle body, plenum connector hoses, etc.) as it affects both sides of the engine.
