Yeah.

While you have the guage hooked up and the vacuum line removed, rev the motor up and watch the guage. It should move very little (if at all). If it does move, let us know how many PSI it drops and where it started from.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

Ok, I am going to ask a really stupid question so bear with me.

When you hook up the scanner are you following this procedure:

Plug ODBII scanner into the ODB port under the drivers side dash.
Place the key position to Key ON / Ignition OFF
Press Connect or Read (on the Actron Scanners. Big orange ones.) and it should start with the codes.

If none of this works, then I would suspect the EEC just for the simple fact that if the OBD are not working then no matter what you try to fix the computer will still be screwy.
