Possability i dont know if i have a vacuum leak because the car would run wierd all the time wouldnt it i'll check into it the car runs like a dream on dry days like it doesnt have a issue in the world its only got 85000 orig miles of course that doesnt mean a whole lot as ive had to already change the fan clutch thermostat and radiator but i know that water can get into a couple places because of my hood i need to put some screens on the open holes in the front scoops for sure maybe that will help deflect some water
