Is the 20-20 while holding steady at 1500-2000 rpm or at idle?
Thanks!

At idle. As the throttle is opened the vacuum should start to drop.

Too low, you have a significant vacuum leak.

Depends on what a "1.7 RR" is.

This ain't Twitter, feel free to use a few extra letters.

Not a tech but if you said 1.7 RR to me I would have no idea what you were referring, please just dumb it down so us slow folks can follow the thread.
