Is the CEL ON?

Spray some carburetor cleaner around intake gaskets and vacuum hose connections (brake booster, cruise control, PCV, etc.). Any change in idle speed would indicate a leak.

thanks. i have no cel and i have tried carb cleaner and it is around the third injector it bogs down when i spray it. my fuel rail isolators are broke so i wonder if my injectors are not seated all the way. i am putting new ones in today maybe that will work. if not it may be iacv. i hope not it is like $211.
