    The first step in diagnosing a problem is to scan the engine conputer (DME) for codes. The Service Engine Soon light is on only when an emissions related code is present. Rough idling could be vacuum leaks. With the engine idling at operating temperature disconnect the MAF. If it idles smoothly, the likely cause of the rough idling is vacuum leaks.

    Does sound a vacuum leak, perhaps associated with the plumbing to the brake booster.

    If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark Donohue

    Easy way to test is to turn the car off and pump the brakes. Count how many times it takes before the pedal goes still, a good booster is about 2-3 pumps, a bad booster is maybe 1 or none.
