Default Any ideas about this problem?
I bought gas today and found that my TT will not hold an idle very well. It no fluctuates between 800-1000 RPM. Also, I lost the brake boost. The brakes work but it takes a very heavy foot.

Default check all the rubber "connector-type" hoses for splits >
there's one or two that are problematic - particularly the "y" hose at the brake booster on the driver's end of the manifold.
