engine not shutting off - my mistake, please help
Hello;
I am the proud owner of a 1983 MB 300SD Turbo. Car is immaculate in and out and runs and hums like a champ. Today I decided to install a new car radio w. CD player. After I got the job done, I took my car for a short drive to enjoy my new toy. Once back home I parked the car and turned the engine off. Engine now won't turn off. I removed sidepanel on passenger's side and noticed disconnected vacuum hoses (black/grey rubbery things). I can see the white connections they go into, problem is I don't know which one goes where. I know I should and will be much more careful next time when pulling out stuff. Can someone tell me in what order I need to reconnect the vacuum lines (which one goes where)? Thanks so much in advance for your help and for putting up with my stupidity. Lode

if you need to shut the engine off,there is a stop button near the injection on the driver side of the vehicle.should have white letters surounded by red with the word stop printed on it.

Hey Thanks. I actually got that. What I need help with is which vacuum hose connects to what connector. There is a vertical row of five connector next to the the heater/ac control unit. All the hoses came lose. If you could please tell me which hose connects where. Thank you.

Hello Junkman;
Yes, that's what I need, except, the images don't show which connector goes to which vacuum pod. Just like in the image there are six vacuum pods situated vertically to the right of the heating/ac control unit. I need to know which vacuum tube goes to which pod. Sorry for all the trouble and thanks for all the help. Lode

Super, thanks a lot. One last question (I hope). Is there a dirty quick fix I can use, like plugging off a vacuum line or something that will shut the engine off after I turn off the ignition key? I got 4 days off coming up with the new year. That will give me ample time to fix my vacuum pods problems. Until then I would like to be able for the engine to shut off without having to constantly open the hood and press the shut off lever. Any suggestions?
Thanks a bunch.

At the bottom of those six switches you'll find the main vacuum line that feeds the switches. Just disconnect and plug this line. You can also do it from under the hood......the line is red with a green stripe. Pull the line off the connection (DON'T BREAK IT) and put a short piece of hose on the connection. Then plug the hose and you're good to go.

I think the line under the hood is read & white striped. PO had disconnected & plugged it at a 4 way rubber vacuum junction by the brake master. I'm trying to decide between pulling the dash or trying to replace leaking pods via the glove box. 13 & 17 leak after the switchover valve on my 85SD
