Well they're not always low readings, but they're always inconsistent. And it was about 30 or 40 the other night on the rear rotor, which was the only one we checked. But I wasn't holding the button and it acted as though I was.

I've never heard of those things causing that much of a problem. But I'll check that stuff when I take it apart. Thanks!

An easy way to find vac leaks is get a squirter bottle spray around suspected area and the water should plug the vac leak and pick the idle up.

Nah it picks up the idle for a short time while it gets sucked in. Super fast and easy.
