No voltage data, but foot on the brake in Drive, it shows about 7.2 g/s. If it put it back into Park, it drops to around 5.8-6.4 g/s.

LTFT at idle is 0 when the car is cold and hits around +4 when accelerating. When the car is all warmed up, it idles at around +3 and hits +7.2 when accelerating. It seems like I have a vacuum leak, and as the car warms up, the leak gets bigger?

That's because when you put your foot on brake in drive you are putting a load on the engine. At idle STFT and LTFT should within 3% from 0 +/- if the car is operating properly.

Oh ok. So it's normal? But why does it hit +7 when accelerating?
