I've spent a LOT of time looking and I sure can't find one.  I now
understand that the MFA estimates mpg by looking at rpm, vacuum, and miles
traveled.  It does not measure actual fuel consumption.  So I don't see how
a 99.9 reading could be blamed on a vacuum leak since the MFA should
interpret that as WOT or close to it and estimate a low mpg.

Low mpg is usually a vacuum leak.  A reading of 99 mpg is a big vacuum leak.
