  1. Symptoms are the same as any other car.
  2. It will (can) affect how the engine idles, depending on the size of the leak it may not idle at all. Can cause codes, cause certain things to not work properly, etc.
  3. Generally all of the time, sometimes only at certain times, sometimes at random. It all depends on what is leaking and where (hint).

Why did you not just ask this in your other thread?

And have you not identified the source of the leak yet? Even determined if it is a vac leak?

Seriously, you're going to have to do some work on this yourself, we can't fix this magically with words.
