Vacuum elbows 850 1996

Turbo or not, makes a big difference. For turbos, there is an elbow under #1 cylinder which you cannot see and is a real pain.

For non-turbos, you need to check the accordian air tube between the air cleaner and throttle body for hairline cracks.

Check all of the nipples on the vacuum tree for cracks.

Also check the intake manifold gaskets for leakage. Spraying carb cleaner on the gasket with the engine idling should change the idle if there is a leak.
