Yeah just spray some carb cleaner all over it with the engine running, and if you hear a change in idle, that is caused by the cleaner getting sucked in and you know you have a leak.

i have a v6 and when i first start up the car or rev the engin with the clutch in my idle will bounce from about 600- 1,500. could that also be the air intake or would it be my egr valve. i've also heard a misfunctioning egr could be the problem.... Any suggestions guys
