The valve on the side of the IP is the transmission vacuum valve, the
black line is the vacuum bleed line, its supposed to be open.

Howdy -
While familarizing myself with my new 300D I discovered what appears to be
an open vacuum line. It's black and starts on what I believe is the fuel
shut-off valve on the side of the IP. The black tube starts on the side of
the mechanism and stops near the brake vacuum assist, just short of going
thru the firewall. There doesn;t appear to be *any* place for the vac line
to attach.
Also, there are 3 other vac tubes coming out if the firewall that eventually
go to the top of the same (engine shut-off valve)mechanism. The engine
stops instantly when the key is turned so the shut-off valve seems to work
perfectly.
Time to search the manuals --
