yes...this is a very likely possibility, i will have to take a hard and long look at the vaccum lines, however this engine only has 50,xxx on it and i just swapped it not to long ago, however a line or two could be loose or have a hole in it. I do remember though when i replaced the engine i replaced every inch of rubber line i saw for this very reason. Hopefully its just a loose vaccum hose...
