I could get some pics of the 84 SD tonight, I presume things should be
fairly similar. Do you have the 126 repair CDs? That has some
semi-useful information in it.

Hello helpers! You responded some time ago with diagrams and
information about what vac lines (colors) were for and we tried
changing the loose hanging ones coming out of the firewall in the
engine compartment to see if it would fix some of our problems: The
climate control only works on defrost. The cruise controls doesn't
work. Anyway, the "fix" didn't help and the car would not turn off
with the key. (Had to use the red stop lever under the hood) So we put
it back where it was again. Does anyone have a 1980 300 sd they could
take some pics of so we can compare? Ours has been changed so much,
prior to our ownership that we are really confused!! Don't even know
if the check valves are turned the right way. And again the
unconnected green and yellow lines need proper connections. Just don't
know where! I think if we can get it right, we can then test and find
out if some other repairs need to be done. There is some kind of a
?cutout switch? mounted close by on the firewall that seems to be a
safety for the turbo or transmission or something. It appears not to
work as it should. Also the tac doesn't work, only once in awhile when
it goes crazy and flops around like its possessed. Lots of issues, but
we love our car!! Thanks again for help and suggestions. Would really
appreciate some photos! Chris
