'81 FC air leak
Doug,
Mine does the same thing. I have an 81 as well. It's normal from what I read on here. There has been much talk about that noise on these forums recently--Kerry will probably chime in.. I believe he took his vacuum generator out and replaced the cruise control with another system. I am going to try to get mine working here soon, by replacing all my vacuum lines going to and from it.

They use the flow of air past an oriface to generate vacuum. I was told that if it continues to leak then there may be a leak in the cruise control system.
