I have a 91 s-10 P/U 2.8L It has a vaccum problem.

I have a 91 s-10 P/U 2.8L. I think it has a vaccum problem. Some of the hoses going into the carbureator dont even **** air. Is there a valve or a sensor I need to change. It's getting fuel, but it boggs down and wont run. It doesn' t idle that great either.

Some vacumn lines only **** air when the antifreeze warms up,i would check either EGR valve or EGR sensor,then the fuel pressure regulator,but if you think its a vacumn issue,then spray carb cleaner around the throttle body and lines

I get a whistling noise i think is coming from throttle body

Your whistling is quite possibly a vacuumn hose leak on the passenger's side, top of the engine. Look closely at the hose connections coming from the PCV. Small holes can develop in these vacuum line connections, and you will experience a rough idle, as well as the "whistling" noises.

I think the coil pack is bad on my 97 escort, it shakes violently and stalls. Engine light came on cylinder 4 misfire. Changed spark plugs and wires. Need to know where the coil pack is and how to replace...

The coil pack should should be the device you plug your spark plug wires into. if it is round, then it is a distributor not a coil pack, if it is square and looks like there are relays coming of it, it is a coil pack. to replace this, you simply mach the wires to the corresponding diodes on the new device, unscrew the old one and screw in the new one. plugging in any connecters you might have forgotten.

How do I trace vacuum problem... it is none going to my 2000 malibu hvac control. can I check underhood?

If you think you have a vaccum problem, the best thing to do is replace all the vaccum hoses. As you replace the tubes, do not take both ends off at the same time. Never take two hoses off at the same time. ONLY ONE END AT A TIME. Then replace that end, run the hose, cut it and stick it on.... You have a nine year old car, and that is not unheard of to have vaccum problems, and hunting is next to impossible. It is just cheaper and faster to replace them all and then you KNOW what you got.. "That Problem Has Been Eliminated" if you chasing another symptom.

2000 F250 super duty v10 engine. no heat. coolant changed. fuses, thermostat are ok. temp gauge operates normally. both heater core hoses are warm but still no heat in cab.

check the vaccum hoses on the passenger side under hood. I think that there are two hoses but it might be three. they get brittle and leak. but they move a little valve that you can move yourself just to see if heat works then. it is inline with the heater hoses I think. Bear with me though because it has been about 3-4 years ago when I figured this one out. it is definately a vaccum problem. there is also a set of vaccum hoses under passenger side of dash, several colors in it. might want to look there because sometimes kicked by peoples feet but money is on the ones inline with heater core. just move linkage and see if it gets hot air. Hope I helped and didnt confuse.
