Is heated air same as manifold vacuum?

Glad to serve. What's really important is that RustyRatRod's feelings don't get bruised. I should not have assumed the OP wants to get the info he needs to fix his damn car (correctly) and get on with life; it's possible he asked his question in hopes of being sent on needless goose chases under his hood. I should have thought of that. Thanks for reminding me; I'll try and do better next time.
