Message I have had this air leaking sound by the right side of the balance tube on top of the plenum by where it gets screwed in. I assumed that it was either air running through the balance tube or that the air leak was hidden under the back right of the engine by the windshield.

I checked my spark plugs because i have hesitation problem, and took all of the spark plugs out and moved the balance tube, and now when i started the car the car turned over and there was a huge air leak sound coming by the balance tube and the car would stall without me giving it gas and than the leak would get louder.

My question is, would the balance tube be the suspect, is there supposed to be an o ring that could have dry rotted?? Isn't there like a aiv and egr back there that could be having this air leaking sound also? Thanks
