Sucking Noise

Recently heard a very loud sucking noise coming from the area of my TBI. Strange thing is it doesn't happen all the time. Could this be the seal of the TBI, some vacum hoses or something else?

Do u have an open element?? U can hear mine suck(no comments please) when I start it up in the morning. If it's not OE, then It's probably the gasket(sp?) between the tbi and intake man.

14X3 o.e., functional formula hood(for sale in future), uhhh..., umm...

Am I the only person who believes a car has feelings, emotions, and a soul??

Its enclosed but the weird thing is that sometimes I hear it and sometimes I dont. When I shut the car off you can hear it as it stops. Almost Star Wars sounding.

could be something like your vacuum canister to your cruise control letting back out or something.

You know, my cruise control doesn't work. I haven't got around to looking at it yet but could that be it?
