Major vacum leak!
 

I changed my fuel filter today. I messed with the intake manifold gasket some since I just replaced it and cant get it to set in evenly.
So I go to start the car and it will not run unless im on the gas constantly. I hear a huge hissing noise but I can't figure out where it is coming from. I have had some hesitation/bucking problems before this. Sounds like its coming from intake manifold but no air. Is there something behind the motor that could have com loose???? ! thing after another... Used to never have any problems, looks like my luck ran out :mecry:

New gasket?

this sounds like the exact problem i had when i finished installing the 00VI, i heard a hissing noise and wouldnt stay idle unless i was on the gas, so my guess would be def. a leak between the lower and upper intake manifolds.

Get a can of brakleen or throttle body cleaner and spray it around the hoses/ gaskets with the engine running. if it goes into a leak it will make the engine rev up.

Not sure what the intake manifold gasket has to do with the fuel filter? :scratch:

You are talking about the plenum gasket right? Did you pull the plenum or...? what exactly where you doing?

Over a year ago I broke off the passenger side bolt on the intake manifold. It has been clamped down with a c-clamp since. I have tried to order this part a few times with no success. Any way the clamp gave out after changing the gasket and must have been causing the large leak. Still have a hesitation problem and getting a wobble sound from the pulley area along with some whirling noise . I don't know ....... :wtf:
