Hi,

Wow, figured it out as I tried to dig into the wiring and make sure none
of the connectors were loose.

It was the larger hard plastic hose that comes through the firewall and
connects into the intake manifold after the carburetor.  HUGE vacuum leak.

Totally insane.  Only a 2.5 hour delay while I went through the Bentley.
  lol

Thanks,
Steve Williams
