There are two lines, one for the brake booster and another smaller one
for everything else.
Get a MitiVac and check the two lines from the 5-way T in front of the
engine that go over to the passenger side -- the actuators blow out and
you don't get enough vac to run the AC or tranny controls.
Yea, when I got mine it would run everything all at once. Had low
vacuum. I unhooked the lines to the passenger side as I said before and
it helped. But replacing the pump is what was really needed as it was
the old style pump.

Well if you are not getting enough vacuum from the brake booster line
your pump might not be putting out enough vacuum. First thing to do is
to pull off an plug each seperate vacuum system to see if that is whats
leaking. Such as the trans shifting part of it, then the climate
control part.
Unless the doors,trunk and gas door is the problem then that is a
different system commencing from a pump found in the spare tire well.

The only thing on the booster's tap is the brown line for the engine
shutoff. Everything else comes off the secondary vacuum output line
on the vacuum pum

Yes - there are two ports - one for the booster, the other for the
accessories. Mine (300SDL) wouldn't hold vacuum, and took quite awhile
to "generate" vacuum after starting in the AM. I thought it might be
