put intake, wont idle

I took my intake off to clean my auxilory ports, and put it all back together. I have done this a couple times now and I am almost positive that i have everyting back together properly. The car will start but will stall imediately afterwards unless you give it throttle. Everything seems to be put back together correctly, and I can not here any vaccuum leaks of any sort. Any sugestions????

Jason

Big vacuum leak. Check the hoses that go to the BAC and under the intake snorkle. Easy to overlook...

Only other problem would be the AFM isn't plugged in tightly.

With the car running (mabye have someone push the pedal slightly to hold an RPM) spray carb cleaner around the intake. If the engine suddenly revvs, intake leak where ever you were spraying.

I figured it out guys. I had to listen realy close, but there was another hissing sound when you slightly revved the car. I had pinched the one hose that comes off the choke(i think) when I tightened down the air intake duct back on. So i had a vaccum leak along with a pinched vaccum hose.

You would think thes vaccum lines are just as bothersome as an electrical problem.

Thanks Again
