You can also try shutting the car off with the STOP lever on the engine. This will bypass the vac shut down. If the car starts up normally then the valve is bad.
Yeah, pressing the STOP lever was how I'd shut it off before the vacuum line was pulled.

So the solution to both byronnash's problem and my problem is a new valve then? Does that also take care of the problem I addressed in the original post?
