303,350? Is that all? lol It's a Honda. It's just now broke in!!! Check for vacuum leaks. Check the brake booster hookup from the intake. Also, Using a good brand Aerosol carburetor cleaner (flammable) spray around hose and intake. If car idles when you do this,let it almost die, then spray the spot again. It should help you find your leak. Good luck.
