bottom line is this.
unrestricted flow through the pump is bad for it. the pump should only draw vacuum from the factory designed locations, and not through leaks under carpet/door jam/hood, other places with dirty air...
SEAL IT UP. it'll park when it can, but it'll stay CLEAN!~!!

Any explanation as to why it would only park 2 out of 5 times?
I rigged up another test using the vac pump in my 85 as the vac source. It only pulled 22" Hg, not enough to move and park the vac pump under test. I took a pic of the setup and will post it later. In the mean time I will look for a window air cond compressor for a stronger vac source.
