Default Do I have a vaccum leak??

ok well my car has been idling funny lately and i am wondering if i could possibly have a vaccum leak, when i start the car its fine no idle problem but once i put it into gear (automatic) the idle goes down to like 550 RPMs and i am wondering if i could possibly have a vaccum leak. also my volt meter acts up sometimes could this be a possible spark plug problem b/c i am gonna be changing them soon, i heard bad spark plugs can cause a rough idle.
