Thanks, I'll check that this afternoon. Vacuume problem on the Bus then cv axle 
bolts on the Super, that's what weekends were made for...if your not camping

I don't know where it is located on a bay but on 
most cars it would be at the brake booster vacuum conection.Most of them will 
connect the vac line to the booster.I have seen a few at the manifold but that 
is unlikely.

          Don't forget to check the check value.If 
          it's bad it will act just like a vacuum line off.

                yep, I went through all the lines starting with 
                  that nipple on the intake. I hope I don't have to take every 
                  hose off - because if it is a hose it will be a hairline 
crack 
                  on the bottom that you can't see until you do - I'm not 
                  cynical I am a Bus driver ; p
