the point Kerry is making is that if you have a vac leak at a door, it interferes with the vacuum engine kill. So isolating the laek with a golf tee should allow the vacuum to kill the engine. If the leak is upstream of the (brown I think) vacuum tube that goes to the UFO shaped kill switch, then you are out of luck and must replace the line from the vacuum pump.
But based on your description, it sounds like removing the door licks from you vacuum circuit will restore engine shut off function.
