    Time for the large screw driver as a stethoscope trick.
    I know this sounds too simple, but I would be starting with checking the belt condition and tension.

    Easy to unhook vac at the intake manifold to see if it changes. Hole in modulator hose or line? worth a try.

    How much fluid did you put in it, and are you checking the level when it is running, and warmed up?
