Same as the last time. Read the suggestions posted to you.
Vacuum pump is bad or you have a massive vacuum leak. THis was all
explained to you before.
Some of you will recall my write up of the intermittent loss of power
braking on my 1983 300TD, coupled with the loss of engine shut off (won't
turn off with key). I fiddled with a rubber connector to the brake booster
line, and happily the problem disappeared for nearly a week.
The issue then resurfaced, but now the following symptoms occur all the
time:
1) Power brakes completely gone - must apply extremely forceful pressure on
the brake pedal (or petal, if you prefer).
2) Cannot shut off the engine with key - must be done manually
3) Vacuum door locks completely inoperative, even with the engine running.
Otherwise, everything else on the car works fine.
Whoever is the first to successfully diagnose this problem, based solely on
the symptoms enunciated above, wins a coveted "ATTABOY".
Good luck.
