Without hesitation I follow Nate's advise, to the letter. He last advised that I check the two short rubber tubes that connect the two brown vacuum lines to the key switch. With some struggle, I pulled to access panel to get under the dash and check this connection. I found the rubber connector tubes to be in good shape and the brown shut down lines connected as they should be.
But...in the process, I would a black vacuum line, all most in the exact location of the brown lines, under my cover panel of the steering column, disconnected.
I have hunted pretty good under the dash to see when this might have gone, the other end is connected to a three way spider, with a line that feeds the top back of the injector pump and another line that runs to the top of the valve cover and mounts into a black box with other vacuum lines also attached.
What is the black orphan and what might it need connecting to.
Nate advised earlier that the black line is some models connected to another vacuum storage container within the driver's side fender, but it appears that this line is running in the wrong direction to make that connection.
Mine is a 1982 300CD Turbo coupe.
