You accidentally disconnected or broke a vacuum line. Look around to find a loose or broken vacuum line.

Thank you! As I was getting of the car this morning to manually shut of the engine, I noticed one of the yellow vacuum tube going through the drivers door was broken off of course the other half was behind the panel where the hood latch is. I used a thick fuel line with the right inside dia for the tube as a coupling. All is well, thank you for the diagram. I was lookiing for one.

Here is a thread on your vacuum interlock system.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works

Thank you! That was a nice idea about the "small zip ties". Also, I saw the diagram, it shows the red and green tubing. In my 1984 300D going through the drivers door were three yellow tubes. I didn't pay any attention while I was doing the repair, but are these tubes coded with a stip on them like wires are?
