Hi sammmmmmmm,

When the secondary venturi os leaking, you should check if the throttle valve is completely closed. When the linkages are stuck, it would leave a gap for vacumn which would cause the leaking. Another possible cause is vacumn leakage and you should check the hoses and their components. The manifold gasket and PCV are other areas to check.
