Phoenix,
Some of you may remember that I've had a long standing but
intermittent problem with run-on since owning my car (about two
years). I think I've resolved it and if so the solution was so simple.
I noticed that as the car would warm up it would shut down much more

Hey Brian,

Do you know if the cycling switch is adjustable? if so you may need to bring it

It can be that simple. All it takes is a small vacuum leak to cause the
symptoms you describe and a loose hose will do it.

That's why you need a mighty vac or some sort of vacuum pump for testing out
these circuits. You could have found this in no time years ago.
But, good detective work.

Yes. Even on lesser marques, a tiny crack or a slightly loose hose will
cause amazingly wonky (and sometimes intermittent) results. I installed

What I am saying is that the end of the arm (I'd call it a sway bar

the threads start, underneath the rubber bushings. I'm still waiting

That seems a bit weak. Were you using a venturi pump or piston pump?
If you closed the valve to the pump, would the system hold vacuum,
or would air leak in?

Piston pump. The vacuum held with valve closed.

I'm afraid I agree. In Texas a car with good compression should start even
with weak glow plugs, though it might take more than one cycle of the plugs.
So if the relay is working, there is either a problem with fuel delivery
(which could be as simple as stale diesel in the tank or a plugged filter)

If it is anything like the TD, the old one just comes out and the new
one should go in the same way, fairly apparent once you open up the door
panel. A few bolts to undo, then some gyrations to get it out of the
