Thanks for the replies. I would really like to learn a way to check this vehicle for vacuum leaks. I have checked the vacuum lines on the drivers side that goes to the fuel regulator. I can see no leaks and fuel pressure changed when disconnecting the vacuum line. On the passenger side, I have traced from the intake manifold all the way to the vacuum canister and the four way tee. I can't see any damage to the lines so far. And I can't really do much other than visual inspection. Pin hole leaks would be almost impossible to detect visually. And I can only keep the car running about 15 seconds, so chasing a leak with something like carb cleaner won't work. Keeping it running long enough to troubleshoot is a problem. I'll post a video of it running to give you all a better idea of what I am seeing and hearing. I do appreciate all of your help.
