I've known for some time that I've got a vac system issue in my 84 300SD..
The central locks don't "extactly" work.. The drivers door locks the trunk and fuel door.. Not the car doors..
On cold days (and when the engine is cold) the engine doesn't shut off with the key.. Locking the door doesn't shut the car off (as my old 240D did)-- but pressing the brake pedal does.. Pressing a different button on the hvac controller does, as well.. (Changing from defrost to vent, I think is what I did, yesterday..)
I've been having cold start issues-- I'm wondering if the pump doesn't have enough vacuum start? Is that a possibility??
after the engine starts, even a second or two of runtime-- it's a non-issue..
The glow plug circuit has been interrogated to death-- and it's functional, the glows have all been ohm tested (with removal/replacement scheduled...) It doesn't "ACT" like a glow plug issue..
...no trees were injured in the delivery of this email.
Some electrons WERE inconvenienced, however.
