Just one comment having chased vacuum leaks myself, zip ties don't give constant pressure on small vacuum lines, I prefer little clamps that prevent popping off of lines, otherwise you will be doing this again in a few months.
Matt ive owned a wide range of cars and diesel trucks. Which is what i have now! Big psi numbers, anytime your working with any turbo lines, boots, connectors etc. The secret is strongest hairspray you can find. Slather the pipes and boots before you connect then clamp. Seriously im hitting 32 psi and take my stuff apart and reassemble never had one issue. Hairspray is the secret lol devin niemela the evo king taught me that little hack.

If you ever pull the motor, you can do a huge amount of vacuum hose reduction. Basically can get rid of half the hoses, solenoids, and check valves as well as the secondary air

@@matt13ross yes need to tune the secondary air codes out. You can still do a large amount of reduction and leave the secondary air in as well.

Congratulations on figuring it out. I know how difficult things like that can be. Watching all the episodes on this I think the majority of the vacuum leaks were your fault. You were putting too much pressure through the lines. Look how small they are. They were never intended to have that much pressure put through them. You will appreciate your smoke can more on engines that you can see the majority of it. It looks like you and I bought the same one except different colors. And you don't need to buy the expensive smoke from the retailer. Baby oil or mineral oil works just as well. I picked mine up from Dollar tree. Which now is a 1.25 which is still a lot cheaper than most retail stores and most definitely cheaper than the smoke that came with our machines. I'm looking forward to watching more from you. Again congratulations. I'm glad you did not take it to a dealer. It might take DIY a little longer to fix and figure out something then a dealer just look at all the money you save.
