True. The pump on my '77 busted the diaphragm last week and I'm still driving it. I don't even have to use both feet. I just press hard with my right. Turning the engine off is accomplished by putting it in gear and stalling it.
Before you ask why I'm doing such a boneheaded thing when I have two other cars, there is a reason for that. The other cars are back home and I'm not, and I haven't had time to pull the part I need from the junkyard yet.
