Thanks to all Gurus! My car turns off with the KEY again!

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to thank you all for the continuous wealth of vacuum tips and other advice given on the board. I didn't ask this one directly but my car (83 300TD) wasn't turning off with the ignition switch, my locks didn't work, and I had to lock my drivers door with the key to get the car to turn off without opening the hood. So I read a little bit on here and now I have 2 vacuum caps over the door lock tubes coming from the driver's side front and it shuts off with the ignition switch!!! Still takes a few seconds and dies slowly so I'm sure there are more leaks but this was a great victory for a newbie like me!

Now I can dig into the door lock system and see where the real leak was...and maybe fix my intermittent tach and glow plug light...and the air conditioning, and...you get the picture!

Thanks for everything!!!
Mike
