Hi, All. Reply to Don Roberto. When I replaced the shutoff vacuum pukky, I
first got a replacement from Rusty (All Hail Rusty!), removed the intake
manifold, (new gasket same source) tried not to break anything removing the
electrical connector. The locking ring for the conn. came off after
rotating it around 'til it slid up off the base. replaced the vacuum shut
off with a new (plastic i.e. cheap) replacement and using Mightyvac
confirmed correct operation. Reassembled everything as per the photo's I
took beforehand, and, taking a DEEP breath restarted the beast and it then
shut off as designed. (phew!) More than you wanted to know I'll bet!
