Thank you for the response PAHonda. P0507 is the same code over and over. I have the cheap scanner from Wal Mart. $20 bucks. I think it will freeze frame. I will get a picture of readings and post them.

If you have access to a compressed air source read on, otherwise disregard this post...
  • Feed compressed air into the exhaust pipe (if dual exhausts, plug one side).
  • Seal the feed source (probably a hose) so no air can escape past it thus forcing the air up into the engine.
  • Disconnect the intake system and seal the throttle body.
  • Open the hood and start spraying liberal amounts of soapy water all over the place.
  • You have a vacuum leak wherever you see bubbles.

Thank you, I do have a compressor I can use. The only thing I need clarification on is the “feed source “. I don’t know what that is.

Feed source: The hose from the compressor duct taped into the exhaust.

Got it,duh. Will try as soon as possible. Wanted to mention as my wife and I are using the car today, the cel has turned off. It will come back but what are the chances I have a leak if problem goes away and returns randomly?
