Hey folks,
How do I know if the vacuum pump on my '85 190D is going out? Its slow to
develop vacuum at low speed, when I back out of my driveway in the morning I've
got no power brakes. By the end of my street like 50 yards away everything is
fine.
I replaced a short bit of line from the pump up to IIRC a tee not long ago
which made the car shut off better but this is a new behavior.
It looks like the vacuum pump is easy to replace, maybe have to pull the belt
but no other major parts. Anybody BTDT?

After I replaced the bad injector line last night I noticed there are very few
plastic clips anywhere on the lines.
Rusty's site says I should have 5 lines total, I also have a plastic bumper
that doesn't seem to show up on Rusty's list. Anybody BTDT on a 601?
Theres a thread on the Bimby board about it but I can't recall my login and
password over there and it takes awhile for it to reset them.

<<Maybe.=A0 In some (most?) jurisdictions the video or picture has to be
reviewed by a police officer before a ticket is issued.=A0 Since the
picture is generally framed to show both the car and the traffic light
this is pretty straightforward.=A0 If the car is in the middle of the
intersection and the light is red, there's not much room to say you're
falsely accused.>.
I think you need to read the Car & Driver article about this of about two=20
issues back. The cameras are owned and installed by (after an ordinance is=20
created and a permit is issued) a private firm which collects the fees and s=
hares=20
them with the municipality. The PD is not involved and that's why no points=20=
are=20
assigned to the driver's license. That's how it's going to work in Kent, WA=20
south of Seattle, BTW.
How this plays out in traffic court when the accused pleads not guilty is=20
unknown to me. Maybe they bring in the camera.=20
J'accuse.
