Default Mystery vacuum leak XJ6 X300 3.2

Hey gang, I have a vacuum leak after just having replaced the rear main seal even though I didn't touch any of the vacuum lines. I have been through cleaned the intake and sprayed some ignition start along the vacuum lines that I can access from the top to find the leak and had no luck . Any advice?

Welcome to the Forums from across the ditch.

When you have a coffee break, please do an Intro in the New members Area, keeps the Boss happy.

Only thing I had on mine was the nylon line under the Inlet manifold that got moved a far bit to change the oil filter, but you could hear that sucker.

Maybe worth a good look, coz a lot of stuff would have got moved and shoved to do that seal.

Good luck.

Going back a step, what has persuaded you that you have a vacuum leak? High idle?
