Default Headlight raising....why?

Whenever I start my engine, and run it for about 1-2 minutes, and shut it off (usually when I am working on the engine), the left headlight raises about 2" and closes immediately. It doesn't do that when I drive around town or on the road. The headlights work perfectly, raising and lowering quickly when I turn the lights on or off. Any help or info will be appreciated. I just don't know if this is a sign of something going astray....

We ususally think of our vettes as guys. well, maybe yours is a chick. it likes the attention and flirts a bit with you. 8) actually, it must be a vacuum leak past your headlight switch pulling slightly enough vacuum to lift that one light only.

It might be a slight leak at the one way check valve.
