Default Need a little help!

I recently removed my heat and air, I removed the compressor, condensor, blower ductwork, everything. Well I now have the symptoms of a vacuum leak. High idle, surging at times? I dont actually think I have a vacuum leak. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I think you might. There's a small vacuum line near the back of the intake that runs the vents via the controls in the car. It's the little black hose that runs near the MAP sensor. Check that one.

Nope wasnt a vacuum leak. While I was taking all the HVAC stuff out I let a buddy of mine borrow my ported TB. He has a cam and adjusted the throttle stop. I adjusted it back and poof problem gone. Thanks for the help all the same!
