I found a pin hole in a valve cover and was blowing by.
Could a vacuum leak cause such a huge drop in power?

Yesterday I had a great running van.
Today low on power, idle is weak and chokes until hi revs.
DigTool checked all that I could and all check out OK.
No difference when oxygen sensor is unhooked.
In the process of cleaning all grounds.
Compression is excellent, Leak down excellent.

Feel free to pmail me with suggestions
