Re: [diesel_mercedes] Door locks & engine cutoff not responding.

 

remember an engine that doesn't shut off is better than an engine that doesn't start.  The first step would be to check if the engine is producing vacuum.  Do your brakes work like they should?  If so, you probably have vacuum but you could check it by the power brake connection.  The next step is to get the vacuum line diagrams.  A shop manual or the Performance Products Catalog now part of Ecklers has workable drawings.  The next step would be to isolate the line feeding the door locks and block it off.  If the car still won't shut off, the little valve  on the ignition lock may be the culprit.  Its held on with two straight screws, phillips screws would have been a help here.  Make sure that you reconnect the lines to the same fittings as the original set up.

I can't find any loose vacuum fittings under the hood.  I sucked on one connection and it keeps vacuum.  Where to start????? Under the dash I think.  Maybe check the door.  Lawrence Rhodes
