Vac Leak Noise? I have no idea....

hey all, it's tyler.
SO my '89 900T is making this odd noise, especially noticeable at idle- sounds like a pulsating shh-shh-shh-shh noise that is in sync with the engine speed. seems to go away or get much better when RPMs are increased, i have no idea what it is. just changed my oil, purolator filter with quaker state 10W-30 and "Restore" oil additive - i've had good luck with this in the past. I have had this noise before, and it seems to come and go. prior to this noise appearing, i was having idle issues with my idle dropping to almost stalling point when i depressed the clutch. now, of course, that problem is gone, but the noise has arisen and i've also noticed that cold starts make the engine rise to almost 2000 RPM and stay there til it warms up (even with my foot off the gas). at any rate, vac leak? something with the AIC? im totally lost, anyone who can shed some light on these issues would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
