I still have serious concerns with the installation of my shut-off on the IP. The hook on the shut-off valve is not hooked into the notch on the rack in the IP. It is behind it. When the hook was in the notch, I got a run away. I think the missing spring on my throttle linkage at the firewall is part of the issue. There should be 2 and I only have one. I think the return force on the linkage is sub-par and the new shut-off valve was a bit stiff. I checked the operation of the new shut-off before installation with the Mighty-Vac and all appeared well. I am still confused as to why I had the run away.

After I get the rear window seal project done I will readdress the shut-off valve and spring issue.
