Where do you have your Charcoal Cannister Vacuum hooked, or do you have a Charcoal Cannister?

Itdefinitely sound like you have a vacuum leak because mine did the same thing!
1st time was the hose from the Charcoal Canister, 2nd time was the PVC valve came out of the grommet and both time I had the same problem you're talking about

Here are a few more vacuum diagrams thatI have that may or may not help?
Sorry.... but it's the best that I can do for you, other than saying you'll need to find that leak .
