I got rid of the check engine light but I can tell there might be a vacuum leak, as my idle is 1200 - 2000 RPM. the tech at the smog place is offering a pretest for like $40 more.. and I am really tight on money, is it such a high possibility that a vacuum leak would cause it to fail? should I risk it and be put through the California smog system $80 is all I have with an expired Temp tag and I hate being tight on money
