The vacuum pump running is a issue in the fact that you do have a massive leak, but the engine when running creates enough natural vacuum to keep the tank stored. If you did get into the secondary system for a lengthy time, you would set a SES light for that as well.

Thanks,

I have the manual, but for some reason, the vacuum issue doesn't equate w/ code 16. I'll have to dig deeper.

They don't equate. Troubleshoot separate.

There is a small check valve on the vacuum pump hose, under the plenum, to prevent the pump from trying to pull a vacuum while the engine is stopped. Sometimes this valve goes bad. Try disconnecting to line at the fitting where it goes under the plenum, drivers side, and place your finger over the line (non plenum side) and see if the pump stops running. If so, you can add a small check valve to the line, in series, and prevent having to pull the plenum.

Thanks Rod...already fixed. I think something got really wet when I rinsed the car off at the car wash. I recently checked codes and got a secondary code 61. Seems fine now.

So your still getting a code 61 ? Or???

Im getting an intermitent code 61 that wont hard set SES will illuminate then go away. Im wondering if my vacuum pump is bad? From what I read in the FSM if the pressure on the secorndary actuators hits a set point the pump is suposed to kick in to maintain pressure. Anyone ? ?
