I've been reading the posts about the vacuum system on cars like my 87 300D (209k), and MERCY ME! (hence my screen name). I like tinkering, but this is way out of my league. My tranny shifts pretty hard, though it's tolerable.

I'm pretty sure I have vacuum problems, because, for one thing, my rear headrests won't unlock, which I've read is a vacuum issue. I'm still working to solve my "squirrel cage blues", so I'm not sure if I have vent issues or not (just got the car a week ago). But it would not surprise me.

So . . .

Is there anyone close to the Triad (Greensboro) area of North Carolina that would be willing to test my vacuum system? Of course I would not expect this for free. There's no real urgency, but I really don't know who to trust, and as a member of this forum I really feel like a part of a big family.

Thanks for everything.
Troy
