does anyone have some pictures of the vacuum hoses to check to see which ones might be leaking - I have some sort of leak and before I venture into the intake gasket, I want to eliminate all the other ones first

also what would the symptoms be if the intake and plenum gaskets are either not the right aftermarket ones or are somehow leaking ???

I removed the engine cover and the only visible gasket (plenum) is not aligned and parts of it are coming out (I was assuming these were 'universal' and are designed to interchange with other engines????)

I am experiencing perfect idle but once I apply the throttle, there is hesitation before power comes on....

any help appreciated

And if you have a mangled gasket, go fix it.
