If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Just got home to see the thread. Marky is right, there is a vacuum port on the outside of the inlet manifold that has a rubber pipe pushed on that used to go to the vacuum valves. This needs capping off, just cut 1" of pipe, and put a chopped off nail in one end then push over the spigot.
