Several possibilities:

A. Vacuum leak
1. Caused by battery acid dripping on, and eroding, cruise control
vacuum line under battery tray
2. Broken/leaking vacuum line to front axle CAD (only applies to 4x4)
3. Leaking intake plenum gasket
B. Bad check valve in vacuum line coming off passenger side of intake
manifold
C. Failed vacuum resevoir underneath cowl
