Idle rpms dropping when going into gear
Hey everyone,
So I'm having an issue that when I'm sitting at idle, and put the car into gear (manual trans)(85 GSL-SE), the car idle drops and wants to die while I'm holding the clutch in. Not sure what this would be caused by. Vacuum leak? Already bled the clutch so I know that it's fully disengaged.

Let me get some video together and I'll post it soonish. Currently i don't drive the car much since it's winter. Too much salt. I do hold the brake while I'm pushing in the clutch. But wouldn't the car start idling funny even if I wasn't in gear if it's related to the brakes? Btw, pilot bearing is probably bad. But doesn't make too much noise. I feel like it'd have to cause a ton of noise if the pilot bearing was bad enough to effect the idle. But I know that it does need to be replaced.

While working on the car yesterday I found what I would think would be a MASSIVE vac leak. Looks like the big line coming off the exhaust going to my intake was up against the exhaust and burned a real big hole in the line. Not exactly sure what is for but it comes from the same small vac line that opens my 6 port actuators.
