Okay. boys...this vacuum pump deal is getting odd.
All the other failures I've ever experienced has had oil spewing into the
air cleaner housing. This failure is different.
The car will not shut off (I've checked the shutoff valve SAT...it holds
vacuum like mad). There is NO oil getting into the air cleaner housing. The
cruise still works. The HVAC is no wierder than usual. But there seems to be
oil getting into the vacuum lines where oil hasn't been before.
When the main check valves in the vacuum pump fail, what happens?
Any ideas.
