Just got the van back from local shop for an A/C evac and fill. Tech says that there may be a vacuum leak as the blower is increasing as you accelerate. He mentioned a vacuum check valve but I don't recall that being on this model. Anything I should be looking for or another place to check?

There is a vacuum check valve but it is for the brake booster not the blower motor. I attached the info for this. Also, I attached the info for the blower motor.

The blower motor is controlled by the HVAC control assembly with a control wire and it runs through a resistor.

If the blower fan is increasing with speed then maybe we have an air leak in the airflow door. I think the best thing would be to get a recording of what the blower is doing and what it sounds like as you pick up speed. Thanks
