Is your mrs in the car with you when this happens? Do you feel happy??? If the answer to this is yes then run with it and enjoy

Check all the vacuum hoses around the TB, it's a common problem for one of the vacuum pipes to come off underneath.

Yes, first place I would look. This was also my reply, and has happened to me, bit no happy ending as the sucking stopped.

Oh, I had the same problem too! And was a vaccum pipe that is located under the intake cover.
