Clues anyone???
Hey folks.
Odd thing started happening.The engine wont shut off,and the door locks stop doing there thing. I know its all related to vacuum but just a few minutes ago I had a look at the hoses (vacuum) and everything seems normal.Does anyone have a clue where I should be looking? The other day i replaced the cooler lines and everything was good for about three or four days and now this... Regards Dan

It sounds like you have a lose vacuum line.
You really need a mighty vac, they should come with these cars as standard equipment. So if you plan on owning them for a bit go down to your local Autozoo and get one. Than start pulling vacuum on the shut down circut and work around it, totaly PITA I know but thats how you find these leaks.

I just hunted one of these down. No magic bullet, just persistence in your search. I would retrace wherever you've been in the engine bay. Start there.
