air leak/vacuum generator leak
I had a similar air leak just after I purchased our '81 FC in 2000. AS
mentioned before, it was the cruise control vacuum generator. After replacing it all was well in that area. I tried capping the leaking port but, it just blew the cap off. That's when I knew I needed help. I was just starting out then and had a lot to learn, still do.

After shutting off the engine, it will make a air leak sound for a little while, that changes when the lines are moved. It has been awhile since I have looked at it, but if memory serves- I have the same device, with a leaking sound coming from a empty port as well. I will be monitoring this post for a repair and or replacement for the device.

It does appear to be the vacuum generator mounted on the bottom of an air manifold behind the bumper. Air is coming out of the one of the fittings that has never had a hose on it. When I plug that fitting, the air must backfeed thru the cruise control vacuum system because it blows the hose off the vacuum canister on the engine. Do I need to replace the vacuum generator (if that is what it is)? If so, where would I purchase a replacement?
