While adjusting my timing (success) I also succesfully disconnected almost all my vacuum lines, from the tree on the firewall to the T on the booster line. Anyone have a picture of how these should go? searching for 'vacuum line picture' and such isn't getting me anything.

I plugged in lines the way I thought they should go, and between a brake pedal that doesn't really brake and a car that doesn't shut off when I turn the car, I figure I got something screwed up.

Check the stick "Vacuum Diagrams...", you may find what you're looking for.

thanks for that link. I wasn't looking at the sticky because I remember back in the day rerouting them for some reason. I think it might have been when I cut vacuum to the egr. A tree coming from the cabin is/was blocked off I believe as well. Any ideas what the heck went on in there?

Symptoms are weak braking power and won't shut off with ignition.

How is the vacuum pump? Do you have a mity-vac? How is the line between the vacuum pump and the brake booster?

I'll agree.
Can you tell the color of the hard vac line that goes to the cabin that has been cut?
