No relations to idle issues, everything is under pressure (oil and water) and does not communicate with the vacuum chambers.

Thank you! The dealer found everything to be in spec. A very detailed diagnostic. So I am back to square one on that situation.
After I get back from S Fl. I plan to change out the gasket, oil, coolant, steering and diff. fluids.
This post has certainly been a huge help. Thanks
