    Vaccum problem

    I have a vaccum problem. When I step on the brake at a light or stop sign after decelerating the revs drop real low and the car almost dies but doesnt. At a stop if I pump the brake it does the same thing. It usually only does it when its cold. I checked the one way valve to the brake booster and it looks and works fine. Other wise the car runs strong. Anybody have any ideas or similar problems?
